hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. includes dust-jacket. very good dust-jacket, attractive copy, near fine gray cloth, appears little used if at all. FLESCH, WILLIAM. Generosity and the limits of authority: Shakespeare, Herbert, Milton. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1992, xii, 277pp., . Generosity is an ambiguous quality, Will…iam Flesch observes; while receiving gifts is pleasant, gift-giving both displays the wealth and strength of the giver and places the receiver under an obligation. In provocative new readings of Shakespeare, Herbert, and Milton, Flesch illuminates the personal authority that is bound inextricably with acts of generosity. Drawing on the work of such theorists as Mauss, Blanchot, Bourdieu, Wittgenstein, Bloom, Cavell, and Greenblatt, Flesch maintains that the literary power of Shakespeare, Herbert, and Milton is at its most intense when they are exploring the limits of generosity. He considers how in Herbert's Temple divine assurance of the possibility of redemption is put into question and how the poet approaches such a gift with the ambivalence of a beneficiary. In his readings of Shakespeare's Richard II, Henry IV, King Lear, Antony and Cleopatra, and the sonnets, Flesch examines the perspective of the benefactor - including Shakespeare himself - who confronts the decline of his capacity to give. Turning to Milton's Paradise Lost, Flesch identifies two opposing ways of understanding generosity - Satan's, on the one hand, and Adam and Eve's, on the other - and elaborates the different conceptions of poetry to which these understandings give rise. Scholars of Shakespeare and of Renaissance culture, Miltonists, literary theorists, and others interested in the relationship between philosophy and literature will want to read this insightful and challenging book. - CONTENTS: Generality and extemity -- "When griefs make thee tame": public and private in Herbert -- Shakespeare's gifts -- The majesty of darkness: idol and image in Milton. 9780801426421 ISBN 0801426421 21.00.
