Architectural Rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser (Studies in Medieval and Early Modern Culture) - Hardcover
Book 18 of 19: Research in Medieval and Early Modern Culture
Synopsis
This book discusses how Shakespeare and Spenser configure the body and mind as a besieged castle or house; a walled city vulnerable to ruin; or as a built environment surrounded by the elements of earth, air, fire, or water. Building on current approaches to the subject of place and movement in terms of cognitive theory, ecocriticism, and posthumanism, Jennifer C. Vaught illustrates how architectural rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser provides a bridge between the human body and mind and the nonhuman world of stone and timber.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware - Jennifer C. Vaught illustrates how architectural rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser provides a bridge between the human body and mind and the nonhuman world of stone and timber. The recurring figure of the body as a besieged castle in Shakespeare's drama and Spenser's allegory reveals that their works are mutually based on medieval architectural allegories exemplified by the morality play The Castle of Perseverance. Intertextual and analogous connections between the generically hybrid works of Shakespeare and Spenser demonstrate how they conceived of individuals not in isolation from the physical environment but in profound relation to it. This book approaches the interlacing of identity and place in terms of ecocriticism, posthumanism, cognitive theory, and Cicero's art of memory. Architectural Rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser examines figures of the permeable body as a fortified, yet vulnerable structure in Shakespeare's comedies, histories, tragedies, romances, and Sonnets and in Spenser's Faerie Queene and Complaints. 238 pp. Englisch.
