  • Marston, Rivalry, Rapprochement, and Jonson

    Collections series Studies in Performance and Early Modern Drama
    Significant and unexplored signs of John Marston's literary rivalry with Ben Jonson are investigated here by Charles Cathcart.

  • Romanticism and Aesthetic Life in Postcolonial Writing

    Collections series Literature, Cultural and Media Studies (R0)

  • Theater and Nation in Eighteenth-Century Germany

    Collections series Studies in European Cultural Transition
    In 1767, more than a century before Germany was incorporated as a modern nation-state, the city of Hamburg chartered the first Deutsches Nationaltheater.

  • Andrew Marvell

    Loss and aspiration, home and homeland in Miscellaneous Poems

    par A. D. Cousins ...
    This monograph studies how, across the Folio of 1681, Marvell's poems engage not merely with different kinds of loss and aspiration, but with experiences of both that were, in mid-seventeenth-century England, disturbingly new and unfamiliar. It particularly examines Marvell's preoccupation with the search for home, and with redefining the homeland, in times of civil upheaval. In doing so it traces ... En savoir plus

    Challenging the idea that a writer’s work reflects his experiences in time and place, Andrew M. Cooper locates the action of William Blake’s major illuminated books in the ahistorical present, an impersonal spirit realm beyond the three-dimensional self. Blake, Cooper shows, was a formalist who exploited eighteenth-century scientific and philosophical research on vision, sense, and mind for ... En savoir plus

Ryan McDermott argues that tropology is not only a way to interpret the Bible but also a theory of literary and ethical invention. The “tropological imperative” demands that words be turned into works—books as well as deeds. Beginning with Augustine, ... En savoir plus

    This study explores the female experience of death in early modern England. By tracing attitudes towards gender through the occasion of death, it advances our understanding of the construction of femininity in the period.
