By analyzing the interrogations of Margery Kempe, Anne Askew, Marian Protestant women, Margaret Clitherow and Quaker women, Genelle Gertz examines the complex dynamics of women's writing, preaching and authorship under religious persecution and censorship and uncovers unexpected connections between the writings of women on trial for their religious beliefs.
