  • 'The Apish Art': Taste in Early Modern England
    ‘THE APISH ART’: TASTE IN EARLY MODERN ENGLAND ELIZABETH LOUISE SWANN PHD THESIS UNIVERSITY OF YORK ENGLISH AND RELATED LITERATURE JULY 2013 Abstract The recent burgeoning of sensory history has produced much valuable work. The sense of taste, however, remains neglected. Focusing on the early modern period, my thesis remedies this deficit. I propose that the eighteenth-century association of ‘taste’ with aesthetics constitutes a restriction, not an expansion, of its scope. Previously, taste’s epistemological jurisdiction was much wider: the word was frequently used to designate trial and testing, experiential knowledge, and mental judgement. Addressing sources ranging across manuscript commonplace books, drama, anatomical textbooks, devotional poetry, and ecclesiastical polemic, I interrogate the relation between taste as a mode of knowing, and contemporary experiences of the physical sense, arguing that the two are inextricable in this period. I focus in particular on four main areas of enquiry: early uses of ‘taste’ as a term for literary discernment; taste’s utility in the production of natural philosophical data and its rhetorical efficacy in the valorisation of experimental methodologies; taste’s role in the experience and articulation of religious faith; and a pervasive contemporary association between sweetness and erotic experience. Poised between acclaim and infamy, the sacred and the profane, taste in the seventeenth century is, as a contemporary iconographical print representing ‘Gustus’ expresses it, an ‘Apish Art’. My thesis illuminates the pivotal role which this ambivalent sense played in the articulation and negotiation of early modern obsessions including the nature and value of empirical knowledge, the attainment of grace, and the moral status of erotic pleasure, attesting in the process to a very real contiguity between different ways of knowing – experimental, empirical, textual, and rational – in the period.

  • Egan, Gabriel. 2004E. 'Pericles and the Textuality of Theatre'
    Egan, Gabriel. 2004e. 'Pericles and the Textuality of Theatre': A Paper Delivered at the Conference 'From Stage to Print in Early Modern England' at the Huntington Library, San Marino CA, USA, 19-20 March "Pericles" and the textuality of theatre" by Gabriel Egan The subtitle of our meeting, 'From Stage to Print in Early Modern England, posits a movement in one direction, from performance to printed book. This seems reasonable since, whereas modern actors usually start with a printed text of some form, we are used to the idea that early modern actors started with manuscripts and that printing followed performance. In fact, the capacity of a printed play to originate fresh performances was something that the title-pages and the preliminary matter of the first play printings in the early sixteenth century made much of. Often the printings helped would-be performers by listing the parts to be assigned, indicating which could be taken by a single actor, and even how to cut the text for a desired performance duration: . yf ye hole matter be playd [this interlude] wyl conteyne the space of an hour and a halfe but yf ye lyst ye may leue out muche of the sad mater as the messengers p<ar>te and some of the naturys parte and some of experyens p<ar>te & yet the matter wyl depend conuenytently and than it wyll not be paste thre quarters of an hour of length (Rastell 1520?, A1r) The earliest extant printed play in English is Henry Medwall's Fulgens and Lucrece (Medwall 1512-16) but the tradition really begins with the printing of the anonymous Summoning of Every Man (Anonymous c.1515) that W.

  • Sidney, Shakespeare, and the Elizabethans in Caroline England
    Textual Ghosts: Sidney, Shakespeare, and the Elizabethans in Caroline England Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rachel Ellen Clark, M.A. English Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Richard Dutton, Advisor Christopher Highley Alan Farmer Copyright by Rachel Ellen Clark 2011 Abstract This dissertation argues that during the reign of Charles I (1625-42), a powerful and long-lasting nationalist discourse emerged that embodied a conflicted nostalgia and located a primary source of English national identity in the Elizabethan era, rooted in the works of William Shakespeare, Sir Philip Sidney, John Lyly, and Ben Jonson. This Elizabethanism attempted to reconcile increasingly hostile conflicts between Catholics and Protestants, court and country, and elite and commoners. Remarkably, as I show by examining several Caroline texts in which Elizabethan ghosts appear, Caroline authors often resurrect long-dead Elizabethan figures to articulate not only Puritan views but also Arminian and Catholic ones. This tendency to complicate associations between the Elizabethan era and militant Protestantism also appears in Caroline plays by Thomas Heywood, Philip Massinger, and William Sampson that figure Queen Elizabeth as both ideally Protestant and dangerously ambiguous. Furthermore, Caroline Elizabethanism included reprintings and adaptations of Elizabethan literature that reshape the ideological significance of the Elizabethan era. The 1630s quarto editions of Shakespeare’s Elizabethan comedies The Merry Wives of Windsor, The Taming of the Shrew, and Love’s Labour’s Lost represent the Elizabethan era as the source of a native English wit that bridges social divides and negotiates the ii roles of powerful women (a renewed concern as Queen Henrietta Maria became more conspicuous at court).

  • Rita Banerjee the Ocean and Its Traffique: Miscegenation And
    1 Rita Banerjee The Ocean and its Traffique: Miscegenation and Conversion in The Island Princess and The Renegado In the very first volume of Purchas His Pilgrimes, Samuel Purchas showers encomiums on the sea and the art of navigating it. The most important way the ‘multitudinous seas’ served humankind was by uniting it, through trade: “Uniter by Traffique all Nations,” providing an “open field for Merchandize in Peace.”1 It was international trade that connected Jacobean England to the East. Purchas echoes the sentiments expressed in Elizabeth I’s letter to six kings in the Indies which she sent with the East India Company in 1601: That one Countrie should have need of another, and out of the abundance of the fruit which some region enjoyeth the necessities of another should be supplied: By which means men of several and far remote countries have commerce and traffic one with another, and by their interchange of commodities are linked together in amitie and friendship.2 Likewise, the sea enables the spread of the message of Christianity to all lands. Purchas hopes that “as there is one Lord, one Faith, one Baptisme, one Body, one spirit, one Inheritance, one God and Father, so there may thus be one Church truly Catholike, one Pastor and one Sheepfold? And this also wee hope shall one day be the true Ophirian Navigation, when Ophir shall come into Jerusalem, as Jerusalem then went unto Ophir.”3 Conversion was closely related to marriage between Christian and non-Christian partners, and ‘connubium’ often facilitated ‘commercium.’4 While Pocahontas’s much- publicized case in the New World provided an example to the East-Indian ventures, conversion and marriage, like trade, acquired its own distinctive character in the East.

  • Shakespeare and Hospitality
    Shakespeare and Hospitality This volume focuses on hospitality as a theoretically and historically cru- cial phenomenon in Shakespeare’s work with ramifications for contempo- rary thought and practice. Drawing a multifaceted picture of Shakespeare’s numerous scenes of hospitality—with their depictions of greeting, feeding, entertaining, and sheltering—the collection demonstrates how hospital- ity provides a compelling frame for the core ethical, political, theological, and ecological questions of Shakespeare’s time and our own. By reading Shakespeare’s plays in conjunction with contemporary theory as well as early modern texts and objects—including almanacs, recipe books, hus- bandry manuals, and religious tracts—this book reimagines Shakespeare’s playworld as one charged with the risks of hosting (rape and seduction, war and betrayal, enchantment and disenchantment) and the limits of gen- erosity (how much can or should one give the guest, with what attitude or comportment, and under what circumstances?). This substantial volume maps the terrain of Shakespearean hospitality in its rich complexity, offering key historical, rhetorical, and phenomenological approaches to this diverse subject. David B.

  • Shakespeare's Stationers: Studies in Cultural Biography, Ed
    Marta Straznicky, ed., Shakespeare’s Stationers: Studies in Cultural Bibliography (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2013). 384pp. ISBN 978 0 8122 4454 0. Tom Rooney Central European University [email protected] In Renaissance Drama and the Politics of Publication (2004), Zachary Lesser suggests that 21st-century readers should consider how 16th- and 17th-century stationers read the plays they issued, and ‘that thinking of plays as publishers thought of them, as commodities, can change the ways in which we read these plays themselves’ (p. 4). He also argues that ‘the plays of Shakespeare, Marlowe, Beaumont and Fletcher, and their contemporaries will in fact take on new meanings if we pay attention to the people who published them’ (p. 10). Lesser’s method is to examine the plays a particular stationer issued within the context of that stationer’s whole career; as a result he sheds new light on familiar titles such as Othello, The Jew of Malta and The Knight of the Burning Pestle. Such an analysis, he points out, is ‘not merely sociological or historical, but also literary critical’ (p. 17). Lesser is one of nine contributors to Shakespeare’s Stationers: Studies in Cultural Bibliography, a fine new collection of sociological-historical-literary critical essays on some of the printers, publishers and booksellers involved in the publication of Shakespeare’s plays and poems between 1593 and 1640. In her introductory essay editor Marta Straznicky, like Lesser before her, makes the case that many stationers in early modern London need to be understood not only as men working in a trade but as readers of the texts they ushered into print.
