Opis

William Shakespeare's The Rape of Lucrece and John Donne's Holy Sonnets are read against the background of concepts of the soul during the early modern period. This approach provides new insights into concepts of interiority and performance as well as a new understanding of the soliloquy in both poetry and drama. -- .
