One of the most diverse and maverick intellectuals of the early modern period, Margaret Cavendish is known for critiquing a wide range of early modern cultural and philosophical beliefs. In this edition Lisa Walters brings together popular works such as The Blazing World, alongside lesser-known poems and prose pieces, like The Ambitious Traitor.
Lisa Walters is Senior Lecturer at the University of Queensland. She is the author of Margaret Cavendish: Gender, Science and Politics (2014) and co-editor of Margaret Cavendish: An Interdisciplinary Perspective (2022). Dr Walters is also one of the joint editors of the Restoration section of the Palgrave Encyclopedia of Early Modern Women's Writing.
