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
Heather Anne Hirschfeld

By attending to the changing shapes and stakes of joint enterprises, she shows that dramatists did not unconsciously absorb the practice of collaborative writing from general social discourses, but rather were aware of the material and symbolic significances of their work, meanings structured by the traditions of the developing professional theater and by the cultural pressures and anxieties attendant upon a new and often fragile institution.

Nationalism And Historical Loss In Renaissance England : Foxe, Dee, Spenser, Milton

Attribution
Andrew Escobedo
Publication Details
Book, Cornell University Press, 2004
Links
- TABLE OF CONTENTS
Description
Andrew Escobedo here seeks to provide a new understanding of the emergence of national consciousness in England, showing that many Renaissance writers articulated their Englishness temporally, through an engagement with a history they perceived as lost or alienated. Escobedo examines how John Foxe, John Dee, Edmund Spenser, and John Milton used narrative representations of nationhood to mediate what they perceived as a troubling breach in history, attempting to bring together the English past, present, and near future in a complete and continuous story.
