  • Realism and Space in the Novel, 1795-1869

    Imagined Geographies

    de Rosa Mucignat ...
    Posing new questions about realism and the creative power of narratives, Rosa Mucignat takes a fresh look at the relationship between representation and reality. As Mucignat points out, worlds evoked in fiction all depend to a greater or lesser extent on the world we know from experience, but they are neither parasites on nor copies of those realms. Never fully aligned with the real world, stories ... Leer más

    Series series Literature, Cultural and Media Studies (R0)

    Ethics, Authors, Technologies

    'Conversation is the beginning and end of knowledge', wrote Stephano Guazzo in his Civil Conversation. Like Guazzo's, this is a book dedicated to the Renaissance concept of conversation, a concept that functioned simultaneously as a privileged literary and rhetorical form (the dialogue), an intellectual and artistic program (the humanists' interactions with ancient texts), and a political ...

  • Theater and Nation in Eighteenth-Century Germany

    Series 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. What can it have meant for a German playhouse to have been a national theater, and what did that imply about the way these theaters operated? Michael Sosulski contends that the idea of German nationhood not only existed prior to the Napoleonic ... Leer más

  • Marston, Rivalry, Rapprochement, and Jonson

    Series 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.

The ... Leer más

  • Andrew Marvell

    Loss and aspiration, home and homeland in Miscellaneous Poems

    de 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 ... Leer más

  • William Blake and the Productions of Time

    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 ... Leer más
