Über Autor(innen)

Scott Jade:
Dr Jade Scott is a historical linguist and expert in Early Modern women's correspondence. Her research brings together approaches from historical pragmatics and gender and social history to examine women's linguistic agency. She is especially interested in multilingual communities of correspondence and has studied female Catholic exiles under Elizabeth I, code-switching in the letters of Mary, Queen of Scots, and most recently non-royal Scottish women before the death of James VI.
