The Cartographic Imagination In Early Modern England : Re -writing The World In Marlowe, Spenser, Raleigh And Marvell

Attribution
D.K. Smith
Publication Details
Book, Ashgate, 2008
Description
He argues that the literary representation of cartographically-related material from the late fifteenth to the early seventeenth century demonstrates a new strain, not just of geographical understanding, but of cartographic manipulation, which he terms, “the cartographic imagination.”Rather than considering the effects of maps themselves on early modern epistemologies, Smith considers the effects of the activity of mapping-the new techniques, the new expectations of accuracy and precision which developed in the sixteenth century-on the ways people thought and wrote.

Women Writers And Old Age In Great Britain, 1750-1850

Attribution
Devoney Looser
Publication Details
Book, Johns Hopkins University Press, 2008

- Contributor biographical information
- Publisher description
Description
Drawing on biographical materials, literary texts, and reception histories, Devoney Looser finds that far from fading into moribund old age, female literary greats such as Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, Maria Edgeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hester Lynch Piozzi, and Jane Porter toiled for decades after they achieved acclaim — despite seemingly concerted attempts by literary gatekeepers to marginalize their later contributions. In illuminating the powerful and often poorly recognized legacy of the British women writers who spurred a marketplace revolution in their earlier years only to find unanticipated barriers to acceptance in later life, Looser opens up new scholarly territory in the burgeoning field of feminist age studies.
