  • Rape and Resistance of Lavinia in Titus Andronicus
    Texture: A Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences 2017 The Body that Writes: Rape and Resistance of Lavinia in Titus Andronicus Arnab Baul Assistant Professor of English Surya Sen College, Siliguri Abstract The violent rape of a woman is at the centre of Shakespeare’s early tragedy ‘Titus Andronicus’. The gang rape of Titus’ daughter Lavinia unsettles our civilized sensibility in terms of its brutality and raises questions regarding rape’s appropriation in socio-cultural space. The play shows, as I argue here, how the violated body of Lavinia has become a site of contestation representing a struggle between Roman patriarchy’s attempted construction of narrative of shame and Lavinia’s courageous rebuttal. Lavinia’s subversion of this strategy of gender stratification by speaking through language of silence and then using writing as performance, shows a rape victim’s regaining of her lost self.The narrative of rape and revenge thus turns into a narrative of resistance when more than the act of violation it is the consequence of violation of the body and the resultant trauma which is highlighted. This paper further shows that an environment that makes it shameful to speak of rape, disallows a critique of rape and the culture that sustains it. I conclude by suggesting that the death of Lavinia, even after registering her protest, bursts forth the state of crafty amnesia of a society which still is befuddled on the issue of appropriating rape both culturally and psychologically. Keywords: Rape, patriarchy, gender-construction, protest, befuddlement And that deep torture may be call’d a hell, When more is felt than one hath power to tell.

  • 86 Women Under Siege. the Shakespearean Ethics Of
    DOI: 10.2478/v10320-012-0030-9 WOMEN UNDER SIEGE. THE SHAKESPEAREAN ETHICS OF VIOLENCE DANA PERCEC and ANDREEA ŞERBAN West University of Timișoara 4, Pârvan Blvd, Timișoara, Romania [email protected] [email protected] Abstract: This paper discusses notions of physical violence, domestic violence, and sexual assault and the ways in which these were socially and legally perceived in early modern Europe. Special attention will be paid to a number of Shakespearean plays, such as Titus Andronicus and Edward III, but also to the narrative poem The Rape of Lucrece (whose motifs were later adopted in Cymbeline), where the consumption of the female body as a work of art is combined with verbal and physical abuse. Key words: consumption, rape, sexual assault, siege, violence Introduction The fourth act of William Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus opens with the raped and mutilated Lavinia chasing Lucius’ son, gesturing at the book in the boy’s hand, Ovid’s Metamorphoses. She manages to turn the pages to the story of the rape of Philomela, thus informing her father and uncle about Tamora’s sons’ deeds. Starting from this scene, which is one of Ovid’s most prominent influences on Shakespeare’s plays, the paper will discuss notions of physical violence, domestic violence and sexual assault and the way in which they are socially and legally perceived in premodern and early modern Europe. Special attention will be paid to such Shakespearean plays as Titus Andronicus and Edward III, probably the best example of sexual harassment in early modern fiction, but also to the narrative poem The Rape of Lucrece (whose motifs were later adopted in 86 Cymbeline), where the consumption of the female body as a work of art is combined with verbal and physical abuse.

SHAKESPEARE’S “FORFENDED PLACE(S)”: WOMEN AND THE CITY1 SOPHIE CHIARI In the early 17th century, Tommaso Campanella imagined a utopian city, The City of the Sun (1602), in which Love rules over a compulsory system of training and education, and attends to the implementation of political eugenics.2 Daughters under the age of 19 and sons under 21 must be sexually restrained and amorous feelings prohibited. However, a few brothels remain accessible to those individuals incapable of controlling their sexual drives. Generally speaking, sexual relationships are just tolerated in the city as far as the imperatives of reproduction are concerned. In order to beget perfectly sane and vigorous children, partners will mate only after digestion and prayers.

  • Hecuba and the Problems of Conscience in the Rape of Lucrece and Hamlet
    religions Article “For one’s Offence Why Should so Many Fall”?: Hecuba and the Problems of Conscience in The Rape of Lucrece and Hamlet Benedict J. Whalen English Department, Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, MI 49242, USA; [email protected] Received: 20 November 2018; Accepted: 6 January 2019; Published: 9 January 2019 Abstract: In The Rape of Lucrece and Hamlet, Shakespeare focuses upon the effects of sin and the problems of conscience that it causes. However, he does so by shifting focus from the sinner to the one harmed by the sin. Through this shift in focus, Shakespeare explores sin as something that does not only harm the sinner and his immediate victim, but as something that strikes against the common good. Sin harms humanity in its corporate nature, and the consequences of sin—sorrows, guilt, conflicted conscience, and the desire for absolution—spread from the sinner to his victims and the larger community. At pivotal moments in both works, Shakespeare turns to artistic representations of the figure of Hecuba, sorrowing in the midst of the destruction of Troy, as a means for navigating the strained point of intersection between private conscience and the common good. Keywords: Shakespeare; Hamlet; The Rape of Lucrece; Hecuba; conscience; sin When discussing The Rape of Lucrece, it has become commonplace for scholars to mention Gabriel Harvey’s marginalia in his copy of Speght’s edition of Chaucer, in which he remarked, “the younger sort takes much delight in Shakespeare’s Venus, & Adonis: but his Lucrece & his tragedie of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, have it in them, to please the wiser sort” (Harvey 2018).1 Harvey identifies a relationship between Lucrece and Hamlet that has been subsequently explored in a variety of ways; Harold Walley argues that “Lucrece lays the foundation for Shakespeare’s whole subsequent treatment of tragedy” (Walley 1961, p.

Moving Like a Ghost: Tarquin’s Specter and Agentive Objects in The Rape of Lucrece, Julius Caesar, and Macbeth Lizz Angello (University of South Florida) It was a dark and stormy night. A man in robes wandered along a drafty corridor, distracted by the bloody business at hand. He was planning to commit a grievous wrong against a friend and kinsman, but his heart and mind were at odds. The winds howled outside the walls. Sudden light illuminated his passage. This is a ghost story. And, like all ghost stories, it strikes us as immediately familiar. As Shakespeare’s heirs, we know the story well, but from where? Is that Macbeth we see before us, his hand on Duncan’s door? Or do we spy on Brutus, reading a cryptic message in his balmy Mediterranean orchard? ‘Speak, strike, redress.’ The lightning suddenly becomes a meteor shower raining down on Rome.
