Focusing on trade, tourism, and colonialism, we examine England‘s relationship with four geographical areas—Ireland, the Americas, the Ottoman Empire, and Turkey. We pay special attention to the effect of England‘s global encounters on the Renaissance literary imagination and literary form. viii Introduction to Chaucer: The Canterbury Tales and Social Critique; Spring 2012 This course provides a general introduction to Chaucer but focuses primarily on the Canterbury Tales. Romance, Heroism, and the English Nation; Fall 2011 This course addresses the intersections of martial heroism and romantic love in literary representations of the nation before 1660. We begin with Virgil and Ovid, move on to Petrarch and Chaucer, and spend most of our time on sixteenth-century writers, including Wyatt, Surrey, Gascoigne, Greene, Raleigh, Sidney, Spenser, Shakespeare, and Marlowe. Introduction to Shakespeare: Text in Performance; Fall 2011 Covering the breadth of Shakespeare‘s corpus, this course explores how Shakespearean texts were shaped by the conditions of the early modern theater, including performance practices, the emergence of a commercial market for entertainment, and the printing of play texts. Introduction to Shakespeare: Shakespeare’s Genres; Fall 2009, Spring 2011 Beginning with the study of Renaissance poetics and anti-theatrical tracts, this course introduces students to early modern theories of genre and then examines how Shakespeare expands, revises, and builds upon generic models. ASSOCIATE-IN-LITERATURE, Literature Department, University of California, San Diego Courses Designed and Taught: Jacobean Shakespeare; Winter 2011; Spring 2012 This class provides an introduction to Shakespeare‘s work from 1603 to his retirement from the theater in 1612, focusing on how the cultural and political milieu of Jacobean England informed Shakespeare‘s work. Elizabethan Shakespeare; Winter 2010 This class covers Shakespeare‘s work from approximately 1590 to 1603. We pay special attention to issues of gender and power in the plays produced under Elizabeth‘s reign. Monstrous Women in Shakespeare and His Contemporaries; Fall 2009 This is an upper-division course exploring how the image of the monstrous woman in non-elite and elite texts constituted a response to the ―woman question.‖ We look specifically at Renaissance theories of sex and gender, madness, witchcraft, and unruly female sexuality.

  • 4. Shakespeare Authorship Doubt in 1593
    54 4. Shakespeare Authorship Doubt in 1593 Around the time of Marlowe’s apparent death, the name William Shakespeare appeared in print for the first time, attached to a new work, Venus and Adonis, described by its author as ‘the first heir of my invention’. The poem was registered anonymously on 18 April 1593, and though we do not know exactly when it was published, and it may have been available earlier, the first recorded sale was 12 June. Scholars have long noted significant similarities between this poem and Marlowe’s Hero and Leander; Katherine Duncan-Jones and H.R. Woudhuysen describe ‘compelling links between the two poems’ (Duncan-Jones and Woudhuysen, 2007: 21), though they admit it is difficult to know how Shakespeare would have seen Marlowe’s poem in manuscript, if it was, as is widely believed, being written at Thomas Walsingham’s Scadbury estate in Kent in the same month that Venus was registered in London. The poem is preceded by two lines from Ovid’s Amores, which at the time of publication was available only in Latin. The earliest surviving English translation was Marlowe’s, and it was not published much before 1599. Duncan-Jones and Woudhuysen admit, ‘We don’t know how Shakespeare encountered Amores’ and again speculate that he could have seen Marlowe’s translations in manuscript. Barber, R, (2010), Writing Marlowe As Writing Shakespeare: Exploring Biographical Fictions DPhil Thesis, University of Sussex. Downloaded from www. rosbarber.com/research. 55 Ovid’s poem is addressed Ad Invidos: ‘to those who hate him’. If the title of the epigram poem is relevant, it is more relevant to Marlowe than to Shakespeare: personal attacks on Marlowe in 1593 are legion, and include the allegations in Richard Baines’ ‘Note’ and Thomas Drury’s ‘Remembrances’, Kyd’s letters to Sir John Puckering, and allusions to Marlowe’s works in the Dutch Church Libel.

  • The Elizabethan Poetry
    1 Subject: ENGLISH Class: B.A. Part 1 Honours, Paper - 1 Topic: The Elizabethan Poetry By: Prof. Sunita Sinha Head, Department of English Women’s College Samastipur L.N.M.U., Darbhanga The Elizabethan Poetry A. INTRODUCTION Elizabethan Age is generally regarded as the greatest age in the history of English literature. W.J.Long rightly remarks: “After the reigns of Edward and Mary, with defeat and humiliation abroad and presentations and rebellion at home, the occasion of popular sovereign was like the sunrise after a long night.” In the words of John Milton, we suddenly see England as “A noble and pleasant nation, rousing herself, like a strong man after sleep and shaking her invincible locks.” The Elizabethan Age has also been termed as ‘a nest of singing birds.’ Poetry enjoyed its heyday during the Elizabethan Age. The whole age was suffused with the spirit of poetic fervor. There are various factors which transformed England into a nest of singing birds during the age: (1) There was the Elizabethan content and zest for life. (2) Foreign influence, specially of France and Italy, did much to stimulate the growth of the Elizabethan lyric. (3) There was a renaissance of music. The Elizabethan carved for music. The richer sect had their own musicians to while away their leisure hours. 2 (4) Countless books of music were published of which Thomas Campion’s Books of Airs the most popular. (5) It was an age of poetry and romance. New wonders were being discovered almost every day. The atmosphere was surcharged with romance, and song is the very breath of romance.

  • University Wits
    A brief study of UNIVERSITY WITS Presented for The students of Degree 1 English Hons. By Dr. Mohammad Shaukat Ansari Department of English M.L.S.M. College, Darbhanga, Bihar (L.N. Mithila University) UNIVERSITY WITS A Creative Group of Pioneer English dramatists (1585 – 1600) Elizabethan Age – The Golden age of Drama. The Pre-Shakespearean dramatists – John Lyly, Robert Greene, George Peele, Thomas Kyde, Christopher Marlowe – are known as University Wits. Marlowe has been justly called “the father of English drama”, “the Morning Star of the English Drama”. • The University Wits is a phrase used to name a group of late 16th century English playwrights who were educated at the universities. • Christopher Marlowe, 1564 - 93, Robert Greene, 1560 - 92 and Thomas Kyd, 1558 - 94 (graduates from Cambridge University) • Thomas Lodge, 1558 - 1625 and George Peele, 1558 - 98 (graduates from Oxford University) • The University Wits were professional writers in English, and prepared the way for the writings of William Shakespeare, who was born just two months after Christopher Marlowe. • Shakespeare was indebted to each of them. • The drama was truly national that time. • A true expression of national genius in England despite various foreign influences • Dramas became food for mind as well as eyes. • Even, performances were given every night, and as such dramas became source of income. • The University Wits drew materials from old plays, mythology, legend and history, and even revised them appropriately. • The University Wits were aware of demands of stage and audience too. • The University Wits made significant contributions to the development of English drama. • Their dramas were full of actions, thrills, sensations, supernaturalism and refinement.
