Pocket Maps and Public Poetry in the English Renaissance

Beschreibung

Katarzyna Lecky investigates how early modern British poets paid by the state adapted inclusive modes of nationhood charted by inexpensive, small-format maps. She explores chapbooks alongside portable cartography, to examine the ways in which canonical writers represented the nation as the property of the commonwealth rather than the Crown.

Autor

Katarzyna Lecky's research explores how concepts of social justice articulated in natural philosophy and the new sciences informed Renaissance literature. She has published in Exemplaria, The Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies, Philological Quarterly, Reformation, Studies in English Literature, and Spenser Studies, as well as edited collections, and has earned fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies and the Mellon Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Renaissance Society of America, and the Folger Shakespeare, Huntington, and Newberry Libraries, among others. Her next book project examines botanical models of nativity, natality, and naturalization in seventeenth-century literature and medicine.
