    INSTITUTES Institutes fo r College and University Faculty provide intensive study of texts, historical ‘periods, and ideas central to undergraduate teaching in the humanities. They take place in settings suitable fo r research, and they allow faculty to examine significant material under the direction of recognized scholars. They thus prepare faculty to return to their classrooms with a deeper knowledge o f important scholarship in key fields of the humanities. Institutes are sponsored by colleges, universities, libraries, museums, and professional organizations. Participation is open to full-tim e teachers in two-year and four-year colleges and universities, with twenty to thirty participants in a given institute selected in open competition by the institute’s staff. The study program emphasizes collaborative work under the direction of a group of scholars. Participants in these four- to six-week summer institutes receive stipends of $250per week and an allowance fo r travel, room, and board. Prospective participants should write or call the directors of the institutes in which they are interested. There is no need to communicate with NEH. Scholars interested in conducting an institute, however, should write or call: Higher Education in the Humanities, Room 302— NEH, 1100 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.

  • Recent Studies in the English Renaissance
    KatherineSEL 57, 1 (Winter Eggert 2017): 181–225 181181 ISSN 0039-3657 © 2017 Rice University Recent Studies in the English Renaissance KATHERINE EGGERT The exercise of reviewing books on nondramatic Renaissance literature released over twelve months from August 2015 until August 2016 feels a bit like speculating on the futures market. Analyzing the way things have recently been, I am also guessing at what is to come. (Buy ecocriticism, sell globalism, is my guess. I explain further below.) I hasten to point out, however, that I am completing this essay just after the 2016 U.S. presidential election, whose results proved me—like many, many others—abjectly inept at predicting the future. Take my forecasting with due caution. I begin by observing that the books that arrived for my review did not surprise me in terms of their topics, since they reflect the kinds of concerns that have been aired recently at major confer- ences in Renaissance studies. The number of books in certain areas did, however, surprise me to some extent. Although the vagaries of publishing mean that any given year might see a coincidental surge in one type of study and temporary dearth in another, three trends seem evident: John Donne may be shoul- dering aside Milton as the Renaissance nondramatic poet about whom books may be written and marketed; cultural-studies books bearing titles fitting the formula “Such-and-Such Cultural Group, Practice, or Object in Early Modern Culture” are on the wane; and some of the best current work in the field connects literature to science (including the “dismal science,” economics), material- ity, and/or knowledge practices.

Mrs. Humphrey Ward’s Eleanor, redoing Helbeck plot, this time Puritan Lucy marries Lord Manisty (a disbeliever who argues for Catholicism, reflecting Chateaubriand), while Eleanor, Manisty’s soul mate, performs the ultimate self-sacrifice, a Catholic Pauline equivalent, of surrendering her own claim (forecast James’s Wings of the Dove). Chateaubriand praised for “re- creating a church, and regenerating a literature.” Gasquet, The Eve of the Reformation: Erasmus regretted Lutheranism as blocking reform within Catholic church; “part of the price paid [for the Reformation] was the destruction of a sense of corporate unity and common brotherhood, which was fostered by the religious unanimity of belief and practice in every village in the country, and which, as in the mainspring of its life and the very central point of its being, centred in the Church with its rites and ceremonies” (“if it is perilous to accept Gasquet noncritically, it is foolish utterly to neglect or despise him” -- David Knowles) (“now seems remarkably prescient,” N. Tyacke 1998). Wilfrid Ward letter to wife: “I have been reading a great deal of Dante ... I feel in him that independence of thought combined with reverence for the Church which the habits fostered by post-reformation Scholasticism have done much to destroy.” Sinn Fein (Ourselves Alone) founded by Arthur Griffiths (Catholic) (in 1905 started United Irishman newspaper), replacing Home Rule movement with Independence movement, signaling nationalist revival, i.e.

  • Introduction and ELIZABETH SAUER
    JENNIFER L. ANDERSEN Introduction and ELIZABETH SAUER nterpretations of religious meaning have always been central to the criti- Icism of certain sixteenth-and seventeenth-century English writers who engaged closely with the religious cultures and controversies of their day. One constant in the shifting Tudor-Stuart ecclesiastical environment was the definition of English Protestantism over against the twin demons of popery and nonconformity. What constituted “conformity” in the Church of Eng- land — how broadly or narrowly the orthodox middle way was defined — remained in a vexed process of perpetual renegotiation. At various junctures, recusants held out hopes of increased toleration for Catholics, while zealous godly Protestants lobbied for a learned, preaching clergy, for the dismantling of the episcopacy, and for the institution of Genevan-style self-governing congregations.1 While these two groups waited in the wings, attempting to influence religious policy and placing their hopes on changes in policy towards Catholics and Puritans with every royal succession, divisions de- veloped among them about how to live with the established conformist powers. The starkest examples of this kind of fragmentation over questions of accommodation with the Church of England were the rifts that developed between Jesuits and seminary priests among Catholics on the one hand, and between separatists and moderate Presbyterians on the other. Through case studies of critical traditions and selected texts, this volume explores early modern English literary engagements with religion.2 These essays have been written by specialists on particular authors, who have provided overviews of the history of scholarship and of the dominant interpretive traditions, each presenting a kind of a “state-of-the-question” analysis.

Moving Imitation asserts that literary and devotional concepts of imitatio—as the Humanist activity of translation and as imitatio Christi— were intensely interested in semiotics. Indeed, if the Renaissance was a period in which literary imitatio flourished, advancements in translation theory were not unaccompanied by anxieties—in this case, anxieties about the stability of language itself. Likewise, as iconophilia turned into iconophobia, a similar anxiety about the reliability of signs also characterized the turmoil of the English Reformation. Moving Imitation examines the overlapping qualities of both types of imitatio in order to point out how an important devotional aesthetic in the period involves a type of embodied imitation. The human body’s resonance with the humanity of Christ and the pre-Cartesian worldview that saw the human body as fully engaged with what we consider to be more cognitive functions contributed to a privileging of the body as an acceptable sign of true devotion.
