Gender Interpretation and Political Rule in Sidneys Arcadia

Describes the literary reaction of three women to Sidney's Arcadia; Lady Mary Sidney Herbert (Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia) Lady Mary Sidney Wroth (Urania), and Anna Weamys (Continuation of Sir Philip Syndey's Arcadia) wrote responses to Arcadia that engage with the same issues of the power of rhetoric and rule by women that Sidney tackles in Arcadia.
