    Essays

  • Jane Owen

    Printed Writings 1500–1640: Series I, Part Two, Volume 9

    de Dorothy L. Latz ...
    Series Libro 2 - The Early Modern Englishwoman: A Facsimile Library of Essential Works & Printed Writings, 1500-1640: Series I
    Few facts are known about Catholic recusant Jane Owen. The title page of this, her only work, tells us that in 1634 when this volume was published at St Omer, she was already deceased. However, she was necessarily still living after 1617 when the treatise of Bellarmine, which she here partially translates and comments on, De Gemitu Columbae, was first published. It seems likely that she spent most ... Leer más

    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.

Never fully aligned with the real world, stories ... Leer más

  • Politics and Genre in the Works of Elizabeth Hamilton, 1756–1816

    de Claire Grogan ...
    In the first book-length study of the well-respected and popular British writer Elizabeth Hamilton, Claire Grogan addresses a significant gap in scholarship that enlarges and complicates critical understanding of the Romantic woman writer.

  • Memorializing Animals during the Romantic Period

    de Chase Pielak ...
    Early nineteenth-century British literature is overpopulated with images of dead and deadly animals, as Chase Pielak observes in his study of animal encounters in the works of Charles and Mary Lamb, John Clare, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron, and William Wordsworth. These encounters, Pielak suggests, coincide with anxieties over living alongside both animals and cemeteries in the late ... Leer más
