John Derricke's The Image of Irelande: with a Discoverie of Woodkarne
Author: Thomas Herron
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526147580
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 584
Book Description
John Derricke’s Image of Irelande, with a Discoverie of Woodkarne is a key work of English print-making, Irish and English history and cultural misunderstanding. The work attests to the complexity of English and Irish relations, colonisation, military history, imperial propaganda, poetry, art, printing and the forging of identity in the early modern British Isles. The original work comprises of a lengthy poetic narrative and twelve famous woodcuts of the highest quality produced in sixteenth-century England. They also represent some of the only contemporary views of early modern Ireland on record. The sixteen interdisciplinary essays in this collection focus on the text’s political and historical meaning, print history, iconographic elements, paratexts, literary and artistic influences, and cultural archaeology. The collection will appeal to scholars of many disciplines.

English literary afterlives
Author: Elisabeth Chaghafi
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526144972
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
English Literary Afterlives traces life narratives of early modern authors created for them after their deaths by readers or publishers, who retrospectively tried to make sense of the author’s life and works. In a series of case-studies of the reception history of major poets – Sidney, Spenser, Donne, Herbert, as well as Robert Greene, the first ‘celebrity author’ – within a generation of their deaths, it shows how those authors were posthumously fashioned and refashioned. It argues that during the early modern period there is a gradual movement towards biographical readings that attempt to find the author in the works, which in turn led to the emergence of written lives that consider poets not in terms of their ‘public’ lives but in terms of their poetic activity, i.e. the beginnings of literary biography. Will be of interest to students and scholars of several canonical early modern authors.

Maps and the Writing of Space in Early Modern England and Ireland
Author: B. Klein
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230598110
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Maps make the world visible, but they also obscure, distort, idealize. This wide-ranging study traces the impact of cartography on the changing cultural meanings of space, offering a fresh analysis of the mental and material mapping of early modern England and Ireland. Combining cartographic history with critical cultural studies and literary analysis, it examines the construction of social and political space in maps, in cosmography and geography, in historical and political writing, and in the literary works of Marlowe, Shakespeare, Spenser and Drayton.

God's Only Daughter
Author: Kathryn Walls
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781781706510
Category : Christianity and literature
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
This full-length study is devoted to Una, the beleaguered but ultimately triumphant heroine of book one of 'The Faerie Queene'. Challenging the standard identification of Spenser's Una with the post-Reformation Church in England, it argues that she stands, rather, for the community of the redeemed, the invisible Church, whose membership is known by God alone.
