What a premise! I loved the choice of first person. The editor's note at the beginning was definitely my favorite part.

*snorts madly* The editor's comment, and OH DEAR GOD THE FOOTNOTES, and this bit nearly finished me off for good and all:

I care not about 'manly'. With a husbonde like myne I wold settle for even vaguely straighte - in either sense of the worde. AN

Ok. I give up. I'm just going to sit here and snigger for the rest of the afternoon....

This slays me absolutely dead. I am going to go laugh forever now.

The best explanation ever for the founding of Queens' College (my old college! Hee!). Poor Margaret, stuck pretending she cares about deans and students, and the marginalia! Also, Elizabeth/Jane Shore FTW!

Am I a bad, bad person if I really want to read Anne and Elizabeth's sections too?

[lareinenoire]

Yes. If you were a good person you'd want to write them.
