Instead of emphasizing settled consensus they direct their readers to areas of enlivened and unresolved debate.
The deepest periodic division in English literary history has been between the medieval and the early modern, not least because the cultural investments in maintaining that division are exceptionally powerful. Narratives... The original essays in Oxford Twenty-First Century Approaches to Literature mean to provoke rather than reassure, to challenge rather than co...

ISBN: 9780198187356 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Mortal Thoughts: Religion, Secularity, & Identity in Shakespeare and Early Modern Culture
ISBN: 9780199677719 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Since the nineteenth century, it has been assumed that the concept of personal identity in the early modern period is bound up with secularization. Indeed, many explanations of the emergence of modernity have been based on this thesis, in which Shakespeare as a secular author has played a central role. However, the idea of secularization is now everywhere under threat. The secularity of modern society is less apparent than it was a generation ago. Shakespeare, too, has come to be seen in a religious perspective. What happens to human identity in this different framework? Mortal Thoughts asks...

Brian Cummings examines the place of literature in the Reformation, considering both how arguments about biblical meaning and literary interpretation influenced the new theology, and how developments in theology in turn influenced literary practices.
