Judith Drake : ウィキペディア英語版 | Judith Drake
Judith Drake (fl. 1696–1707) was an English intellectual and author who was active in the last decade of the 17th century. She was part of a circle of intellectuals, authors, and philosophers which included Mary Astell, Lady Mary Chudleigh, Elizabeth Thomas, Elizabeth Elstob, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, and John Norris.〔Sowaal, Alice. "Mary Astell." ''Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy''. (2005) 16 December 2006 .〕 She was married to James Drake F.R.S., physician and Tory pamphleteer. She is remembered in the field of feminist literature for her 1696 essay, ''An Essay in Defence of the Female Sex''.〔Smith, Hannah. "Abstract: English 'Feminist' Writings and Judith Drake's ''An Essay in Defence of the Female Sex'' (1696)." ''The Historical Journal''. Cambridge University Press, 2001. 18 December 2006 .〕 ==Women writers at the end of the 17th century== When Judith Drake and the other intellectuals of her circle began writing, they were still a minority and subject to much nay saying. Recently there had been a loosening of censorship of printed books. A few women took this opportunity to publish on gender relationships. Because of their efforts as well as the rise in female literacy, the literary world entered into the debate about women.〔Eales, Jacqueline. Women in Early Modern England, 1500–1700. UK: Routledge, 1998. 18 December 2006 .〕
