| Summary, etc. | As she did with Martin Guerre, Natalie Zemon Davis here retrieves in dividual lives from historical obscurity to give us a window onto the e arly modern world. As women living in the seventeenth century, Glikl ba s Judah Leib, Marie de l'Incarnation, and Maria Sibylla Merian, equally remarkable though very different, were not queens or noblewomen, their every move publicly noted. Rather, they were living "on the margins" i n seventeenth-century Europe, North America, and South America. Yet the se women - one Jewish, one Catholic, one Protestant - left behind memoi rs and writings that make for a spellbinding tale and that, in Davis' d eft narrative, tell us more about the life of early modern Europe than many an official history. All these women were originally city folk. Gl ikl bas Judah Leib was a merchant of Hamburg and Metz whose Yiddish aut obiography blends folktales with anecdotes about her two marriages, her twelve children, and her business. Marie de L'Incarnation, widowed you ng, became a mystic visionary among the Ursuline sisters and cofounder of the first Christian school for Amerindian women in North America. Ma ria Sibylla Merian, a German painter and naturalist, produced an innova tive work on tropical insects based on lore she gathered from the Carib , Arawak, and African women of Suriname. The resulting triptych suggest s the range of experience, self-consciousness, and expression possible in seventeenth-century Europe and its outposts. It also shows how perso ns removed from the centers of power and learning ventured in novel dir ections, modifying in their own way Europe's troubled and ambivalent re lations with other "marginal" peoples. |
