About this book
'The Unbridled Tongue' is a book about talking too much and why it was considered not just inadvisable but dangerous in 16th-century Europe. Drawing on a wide range of sources and approaches, it addresses Renaissance literary portrayals of gossip and rumour in a social, religious, political, and historical frame.
