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.

Archipelagic English : Literature, History, And Politics, 1603-1707

Attribution
John Kerrigan
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 2008
Description
Seventeenth-century “English Literature” has long been thought about in narrowly English terms. Archipelagic English corrects this by devolving anglophone writing, showing how much remarkable work was produced in Wales, Scotland, and Ireland, and how preoccupied such English authors as Shakespeare, Milton, and Marvell were with the often fraught interactions between ethnic, religious, and national groups around the British-Irish archipelago.

Scenes Of Instruction In Renaissance Romance

Attribution
Jeff Dolven
Publication Details
Book, University of Chicago Press, 2007
Links
Description
Drawing deeply on the era?s pedagogical literature, Dolven explores the links between humanist strategies of instruction and romance narrative, rethinking such concepts as experience, sententiousness, example, method, punishment, lessons, and endings. In scrutinizing this pivotal moment in the ancient, intimate contest between art and education, Scenes of Instruction in Renaissance Romance offers a new view of one of the most unconsidered?yet fundamental?problems in literary criticism: poetry?s power to please and instruct.

Attribution
Jorge Cañizares-Esguerra
Publication Details
Book, Stanford University Press, 2006

Description
This book argues that the striking resemblances in Spanish and Puritan discourses of colonization as ?exorcism? The book demonstrates that a wider Pan-American perspective can upset the most cherished national narratives of the United States, for it maintains that the Puritan colonization of New England was as much a chivalric, crusading act of Reconquista (against the Devil) as was the Spanish conquest.

Dissing Elizabeth : Negative Representations Of Gloriana

Attribution
edited by Julia M. Walker
Publication Details
Book, Duke University Press, 1998
Description
Dissing Elizabeth focuses on the criticism that cast a shadow on the otherwise celebrated reign of Elizabeth I. Reevaluating neglected texts that had not previously been perceived as critical of the queen or worthy of critical appraisal, contributors consider dissent in a variety of forms, including artwork representing (and mocking) the queen, erotic and pornographic metaphors for Elizabeth in the popular press, sermons subtly critiquing her actions, and even the hostility encoded in her epitaph and in the placement of her tomb.
