Don Herzog examines the complex power dynamics within early modern English households, challenging the assumption that patriarchal sermons and legal texts dictated absolute domestic order. By analyzing a wide array of canonical sources, pamphlets, and court records, the author reveals that these prescriptive texts were frequently contested, ignored, or subverted by the very people they sought to govern.
