Описание: Watkins traces the development of Elizabeth I`s iconic significance in the political and popular imagination of the seventeenth century. From monarch to the perfect model of the tragic individual pitted against a hostile social order, Elizabeth`s story informed contemporary debates. This study will appeal to literary and cultural historians alike.
Описание: This book is about the historical moment when writers and critics first used the term “realism” to describe representation in literature and painting. While scholarship on realism tends to proceed from an assumption that the term has a long-established meaning and history, this book reveals that mid-nineteenth-century critics and writers first used the term reluctantly, with much confusion over what it might actually mean. It did not acquire the ready meaning we now take for granted until the end of the nineteenth century. In fact, its first definitions came primarily by way of example and analogy, through descriptions of current practitioners, or through fictionalized representations of artists. By investigating original debates over the term “realism,” this book shows how writers simultaneously engaged with broader concerns about the changing meanings of what was real and who had the authority to decide this.

Описание: In thirteen studies of representations of rape in Medieval and Early Modern literature by such authors as Chaucer, Shakespeare and Spenser, this volume argues that some form of sexual violence against women serves as a foundation of Western culture.
Описание: Revises the semiotic paradigm of the early modern `literary system` dominant since 1983 by adapting methods entailed in the idea that literary works emerge through a series of semiotic events. Davis analyzes Philip Sidney`s Arcadia and Astrophil and Stella to demonstrate how design elements stage the scene of reading these works.
