36、mily. Accordingly, a womans subjection, first to her father and then to her husband, imaged the subjection of English people to their monarch, and of all Christians to God. Also, the period saw an outpouring of repressive or overtly misogynist sermons, tracts, and plays, detailing womens physical an

37、d mental defects, spiritual evils, rebelliousness, shrewish ness, and natural inferiority to men. Yet some social and cultural conditions served to empower women. During the Elizabethan era (1558 1603) the culture was dominated by a powerful Queen, who provided an impressive female example though sh

38、e left scant cultural space for other women. Elizabethan women writers began to produce original texts but were occupied chiefly with translation.

43、ale nor female: for ye are all one in Jesus Christ.“ Such texts encouraged some women to claim the support of God the supreme patriarch against the various earthly patriarchs who claimed to stand toward them in his stead. There is also the gap or slippage between ideology and common experience. Engl

44、ish women throughout the 17th century exercised a good deal of accrual power: as managers of estates in their husbands absences at court or on military and diplomatic missions; as members of guilds; as wives and mothers who apex during the English Civil War and Interregnum (1640 1660) as the executi

45、on of the King and the attendant disruption of social hierarchies led many women to seize new roles as preachers, as prophetesses, as deputies for exiled royalist husbands, as writers of religious and political tracts. 86 What is the best title for this passage? （ A） Womens Position in the 17th Cent
