On p. 6 there is your suggestion that "Cancellar and Bale associate the work of translation as a form of chastity and virginity, indicating perhaps that the education of women and the practiced knowledge of religious work served the ultimate purpose of restraining women and keeping them out of the public eye." Then on p. 7 comes a contradiction of this suggestion in "Elizabeth, however, may not be the most ideal example of this restraint." Does this contradiction arise from the projects of Cancellar and Bale or from elsewhere?

On p. 7 Atkinson & Atkinson are quoted as saying that Thomas Bentley's "The Monument was part of a Church of England endeavour to increase the place of women in the devotional life of the late sixteenth century." Then the Atkinsons seem to be contradicted by the statement that "The abundance of women writers seem to go against Bentley's initial project, because they demonstrate very public demonstrations of female education, originality, and independent thought." Who gets caught out here--the Atkinsons or Bentley?
