Bozio, Ecologies of Thought Ecologies of Thought in Early Modern English Drama by Andrew Jonathan Bozio A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in the University of Michigan 2013 Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael C. Schoenfeldt, Chair Associate Professor George P. Hoffmann Associate Professor Steven G. Mullaney Professor Theresa L. Tinkle Professor Valerie J. Traub © Andrew Bozio 2013 Acknowledgements Like any work that develops over the course of several years, this dissertation has been shaped and supported by many extraordinary individuals, and I’m very pleased to be able to thank them there. I’ve had the good fortune to work with an incredible dissertation committee, whose contributions to this project have left me deeply humbled. One of the greatest pleasures of graduate school has been working with Michael Schoenfeldt, whose enthusiasm and support for this endeavor has been unflagging. Mike’s warmth, generosity, and piercing intellect have made him universally beloved within the profession, and I feel very grateful to have learned so much from him while at Michigan. Steven Mullaney has been instrumental in shaping this project. Our shared interest in cognition and in theories of space provided early encouragement in undertaking this research, and he helped to excavate aspects of the argument that remained invisible to me, guiding our conversations with deeply astute questions that challenged me to rethink the terms of this project. Similarly, I owe an incredible debt to Valerie Traub, whose careful reading of this work helped to give the argument shape and solidity. From the beginning of this project, she pushed me to clarify my thinking, and that precision of thought saved the dissertation from becoming mired in abstraction. George Hoffmann consistently left me humbled by his generosity and his insightfulness, and his encyclopedic knowledge of the early modern period added nuance and depth to many of the claims made here. Finally, Theresa Tinkle’s enthusiasm and ii generosity renewed my commitment to higher education. Her wit and warmth sustained me through the most challenging moments of completing this dissertation. In writing this dissertation, I benefited from several institutions and individuals, each of whom supported the development of a particular aspect of the argument. Much of my research was funded by grants from the Rackham Graduate School, the Program in Medieval and Early Studies, and the Making Publics Project at McGill University, and I am very pleased to able to thank those institutions, as well as the research staff at the British Library, the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Wellcome Library, the Newberry Library, and the Cambridge University Library. At Michigan, I benefited enormously from exceptional faculty members, especially Sara Blair, Alison Cornish, Gregg Crane, Danny Hack, David Halperin, Barbara Hodgdon, Diane Owen Hughes, Kerry Larson, Adela Pinch, Cathy Sanok, Karla Taylor, Doug Trevor, and Ralph Williams. I am also grateful to Barbara Rosenwein, of Loyola University Chicago, for her seminar at the Newberry Library, which allowed me to begin the work that would become chapter two. Portions of this dissertation were presented or circulated at the Premodern Colloquium, the MEMS Dissertation Colloquium, the Mellon Dissertation Seminar run by William Paulson, and at annual meetings of the Shakespeare Association of America and the Renaissance Society of America. I’m grateful to my audiences and interlocutors there, and in particular to the many scholars who, in extended conversation, helped the argument to take its present shape: Erika Lin, Marissa Greenberg, Cary DiPietro, Kurt Schreyer, Gina Bloom, and Evelyn Tribble. While a graduate student, I have been supported by fantastic colleagues and by exceptional institutional resources. My thanks, in particular, go to my cohort and to my fellow early modernists, including Chris Barnes, Katherine Brokaw, Carolyn Dekker, Ari Friedlander, Tim Green, Sarah Linwick, Alice Keane, Adam Mazel, Ben Pollak, Rebecca iii Porte, Amy Rodgers, Stephen Spiess, Leila Watkins, Kathryn Will, Rebecca Wiseman, and Cordelia Zukerman. I am also deeply indebted to the wonderful staff in the English Department, especially to Jan Burgess, whose patience and guidance have shaped my graduate career from the very beginning, and to Senia Vasquez, Karly Mitchell, Bonnie Campbell, Lisa Curtis, and Linda Deitert. In their capacity as jobseeker coordinators, Melanie Yergeau and Sidonie Smith offered insightful feedback on the abstract for this dissertation, and their comments helped to reframe the intellectual scope of the project. I am also grateful to the many individuals who have influenced my approach to teaching. With their enthusiasm and their insight, they reminded me of both the pleasure and the political urgency of our work within the academy, and I know that I will be in their debt for as long as I am in the classroom. In particular, I would like to thank Theresa Tinkle, Jennifer Bryan, Justin Kolb, Tershia Pinder-Grover, and all those who contributed to the 2011 Preparing Future Faculty Seminar. Finally, whenever the pleasant solitude of writing this dissertation lost its charm, I was fortunate to have a wonderful community of friends, family, and loved ones, without whom I simply could not have completed this project. They include Melanie Adams, Daphna Atias, Brent Beam, Catherine Bozio, Joe Breakey, Michelle Fortin, Lisa Gottlieb, Justin Joque, Michael-Salomon Jost, Eric Kampe, Dan McAdams, Jeff McCabe, Caroline Miller, Rebecca Pallmeyer, Dan Vernia, Jörg Zeller, and Cordelia Zukerman. To Ruth McAdams, I owe everything – her love and support have made these years the happiest and most fulfilling that I have known. iv Table of Contents Acknowledgements ii Introduction Cognitive Ecologies on the Early Modern Stage 1 Chapter One Amatory Cognition and the Shape of Cosmos in John Lyly’s Endymion 20 I.

The Induction only appears in this third quarto, and although there have been questions regarding its authorship, Charles Cathcart notes that “a certain consensus has been reached” favoring Webster as the author of the Induction. See Cathcart, “John Marston, The Malcontent, and the King’s Men” The Review of English Studies, New Series, 57.228 (2006): 43. Nevertheless, I follow convention in using Marston’s name when speaking of the play. 2 John Marston, The Malcontent in English Renaissance Drama, David Bevington, Lars Engle, Katharine Eisaman Maus, Eric Rasmussen, eds. (New York: W.W. Norton, 2002), Induction.2, 14-5. All further references are from the Induction and will be cited parenthetically. 3 Sly and the actors – Richard Burbage, John Lowin, and Henry Condell – comment explicitly on this appropriation of The Malcontent. When Sly asks with regard to Marston’s play, “I wonder you would play it, another company having interest in it,” Condell figures it as recompense for the boy actors’ theft of The Spanish Tragedy, correlating an actor’s age and height with the size of a page: “Why not Malevole in folio with us, as Jeronimo in decimo-sexto with them? They taught us a name for our play; we call it One for Another” (75-9).

  • Front Matter
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-00489-4 - The Two Gentlemen of Verona: Updated Edition Edited by Kurt Schlueter Frontmatter More information THE NEW CAMBRIDGE SHAKESPEARE general editor Brian Gibbons associate general editor A. R. Braunmuller, University of California, Los Angeles From the publication of the first volumes in 1984 the General Editor of the New Cambridge Shakespeare was Philip Brockbank and the Associate General Editors were Brian Gibbons and Robin Hood. From 1990 to 1994 the General Editor was Brian Gibbons and the Associate General Editors were A. R. Braunmuller and Robin Hood. THE TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA Professor Schlueter approaches this early comedy as a parody of two types of Renaissance educational fiction: the love-quest story and the test-of-friendship story, which by their combination show high-flown human ideals as incompatible with each other, and with human nature. A thoroughly researched, illustrated stage history reveals changing conceptions of the play, which nevertheless often fail to come to terms with its subversive impetus. Since the first known production at David Garrick’s Drury Lane Theatre, it has tempted major directors and actors, including John Philip Kemble, William Charles Macready and Charles Kean, who established a tradition of understanding which cast its shadow even on such modern productions as Denis Carey’s famous staging for the Bristol Old Vic and Robin Phillips’s for the Royal Shakespeare Company. This updated edition includes a new introductory section by Lucy Munro on recent stage

Per- haps this is true merely because of the impor~ance which the Romantic School places upon the genius of the subj~ct, for all schools of criti- cism recognize Shakespeare's ability at creating effective drama. A more accurate answer, however, probably lies in the fact that "romanti- cism" has a broad base and encompasses so very much.

Hoenselaars, Images of Englishmen and Foreigners in the Drama of Shake- speare and His Contemporaries: A Study in Stage Characters and National Identity in English Renaissance Drama (London and Toronto, 1992). 44 G.K. Hunter, ‘Porter, Henry (d. 1599)’, The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (Oxford, 2004) http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/22568 (accessed 21 Dec 2006). 45 Henslowe’s Diary, 63, 242–3. 46 See Hunter, ‘Porter, Henry’. 47 Lucy Munro, ‘Early Modern Drama and the Repertory Approach’, Research Oppor- tunities in Renaissance Drama 42 (2003), 1–33. Will Kemp, Shakespeare, and the Composition of Romeo and Juliet ‘Enter Will Kemp’, states Romeo and Juliet’s 1599 second quarto in its uniquely specific stage direction towards the end of scene 17.1 This uniqueness makes the quarto, which editors know as Q2, a crucially important witness to the play’s early performances, and to Kemp’s career with Shakespeare and the Lord Chamberlain’s Men. The Romeo and Juliet quartos, however, contain a number of other curious references to Kemp which act as further evidence of the working relationship between the dramatist and his company’s star clown. A comparison of the play’s two earliest quartos, Q1 of 1597 and Q2 of 1599, shows the clown role to be both malleable and formative in the work’s ongoing generic development. A study of Kemp in the play, through the textual anomalies which separate the printed quartos, thus provides a record of some of the transformations Romeo and Juliet underwent during the first years of its existence, as the company corrected, revised, abridged, and changed the scripts in order to capitalize on and contain the famous clown’s distinctive talents.

Others might visualize a wretched streetwalker, her appearance visibly marred by the tolls of venereal disease, alcoholism and physical abuse, attempting to interest a passer-by in a brief outdoor transaction. Both of these images do have their place in early modern England but they represent polar extremes of a profession that spanned a great range of social class and economic status and which women turned to for diff erent reasons.

As twentieth century attitudes are not uniform the Introduction shows some of the contradictory elements in the modern picture of Bradley. Chapter 2 summarises Bradley's life and surveys some of his nwn-literary writings as a corrective to twentieth century impressions.
