Content: "The dry, wrinkled skin, crow’s feet and rheumy eyes of old women can be seen universally, yet the actual images and their meaning differ widely. And, the very absence of these old women in certain settings also reveals both a discomfort with the aged and an ease in their invisibility. This is true in writing about art and often in the art itself. The physical markers of aging, even implications of death or the nearness of death, make many of these images of old women, haunting; in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, they become emblems of anger and avarice. Yet portraits of known elderly women are often created with a sense of awe, and in some cases, authority. And the old women themselves can serve as models for the young. Frank examination of the aging by contemporary artists is now the subject of a major exhibition, Aging Pride, at the Belvedere, Vienna. These images confront the viewer with their frankness and can be viewed in comparison with the stereotypes developed in the Early Modern period. Images of old women may be the very opposite of what one considers the ideal, but it is this examination that makes these often overlooked images seem fresh and have even been used for self-branding."

Series Statement: Gendering the Late Medieval and Early Modern World 17

Content: The essays in this volume analyze strategies adopted by contemporary novelists, playwrights, screenwriters, and biographers interested in bringing the stories of early modern women to modern audiences. It also pays attention to the historical women creators themselves, who, be they saints or midwives, visual artists or poets and playwrights, stand out for their roles as active practitioners of their own arts and for their accomplishments as creators. Whether they delivered infants or governed as monarchs, or produced embroideries, letters, paintings or poems, their visions, the authors argue, have endured across the centuries. As the title of the volume suggests, the essays gathered here participate in a wider conversation about the relation between biography, historical fiction, and the growing field of biofiction (that is, contemporary fictionalizations of historical figures), and explore the complicated interconnections between celebrating early modern women and perpetuating popular stereotypes about them
