Arraignment of lewd, idle, froward, and unconstant women: or, The vanity of them; chuse you wheter.

SWETNAM, Joseph.

1690

Quarto.

First published in 1615. This misogynistic diatribe sparked outrage and numerous rebuttals. Swetnam viciously attacks the vices he perceived in women, fueling an intense pamphlet war over gender roles in early 17th century England.
