>We would like to announce The Perdita Project: Early Modern Women's
>Manuscript Compilations.  Perdita will be a comprehensive guide to over 400
>manuscripts compiled by women in the British Isles during the sixteenth and
>seventeenth centuries.  Perdita was established at Nottingham Trent
>University in January 1997, and will produce a database and guide to be
>published on the Internet.
>
>The manuscripts which will be described are poetic miscellanies, commonplace
>books, medical and cookery recipe books, autobiographical writing, religious
>material, and account books.  Each manuscript will be described in two short
>articles, which will offer a detailed description of the contents of the
>manuscript and a biography of its compiler(s).  Information such as names,
>dates, places, authors of transcribed material, and a first- and last-line
>poetry index will be available in a list format.
