Marlowe's Counterfeit Profession: Ovid, Spenser, Counter-Nationhood
ISBN: 9781442612969 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Marlowe's Counterfeit Profession presents the first comprehensive reading of the Marlowe canon in over a generation. The occasion for Patrick Cheney's rereading is a primary discovery: Marlowe organized his canon around an "Ovidian" career model, or cursus, which turns from amatory poetry to tragedy to epic. Ovid had advertised this cursus only in his inaugural poem, the Amores, where its purpose was to counter the Virgilian cursus of pastoral, georgic, and epic. Marlowe was the first writer to translate the Amores, and thus the first to make the Ovidian cursus literally his...

European Literary Careers: The Author from Antiquity to the Renaissance
ISBN: 9780802047793 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Authorial studies, or 'career criticism' is a new and distinctive branch of interpretive methodology that explores various paths of European careers, particularly literary careers. In this first book-length study in the field various specialists from Italian, French, English, and Spanish studies collectively discuss literary careers spanning from classical antiquity through the Renaissance. They argue that the idea of a literary career evolves slowly, derives centrally from Virgil, and that the periodization from classical, medieval and Renaissance culture helps to elucidate the details of...

Shakespeare, National Poet-Playwright
ISBN: 9780521072250 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Reassessing Shakespeare as a poet and dramatist, Patrick Cheney contests critical preoccupation with Shakespeare as "a man of the theatre" by reclaiming his original standing as an early modern author. Cheney considers him as a working dramatist who composed extraordinary poems and traces Shakespeare's literary origins to his favorite author, Ovid. Although the book concentrates on Shakespeare's poems, it makes frequent reference to the plays, and ranges widely through the work of other Renaissance writers.

Shakespeare's Literary Authorship
ISBN: 9780521881661 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Re-situating Shakespeare as an early modern professional, in this book Patrick Cheney views him not simply as a man of the theatre, but also as an author with a literary career. Rather than present himself as a national or laureate poet, as Spenser does, Shakespeare conceals his authorship through dramaturgy, rendering his artistic techniques and literary ambitions opaque. Accordingly, recent scholars have attended more to his innovative theatricality or his indifference to textuality than to his contribution to modern English authorship. By tracking Shakespeare's 'counter-laureate...

Imagining Death in Spenser and Milton
ISBN: 9780333983980 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Imagining Death in Spenser and Milton assembles a collection of essays on the compelling topic of death in two monumental representatives of the early modern canon, Edmund Spenser and John Milton. The volume draws its impetus from the conviction that death is a central, yet curiously understudied, preoccupation for Spenser and Milton, contending that death - in all its early modern reformations and deformations - is an indispensable backdrop for any attempt to articulate the relationship between Spenser and Milton.
