Dealing with descriptions of coagulated eye drainage, stinky leeks, and blood-filled fleas, the essays collected here focus on three different kinds of disgusting encounters: sexual, cultural, and textual. The volume investigates the treatment of disgust in texts by Spenser, Shakespeare, Donne, Jonson, Herrick and others to demonstrate how disgust, perhaps more than other affects, gives us a more complex understanding of early modern culture.
