Renaissance Hybrids (eBook, ePUB)

Culture and Genre in Early Modern England

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the first book-length study explicitly to connect the postcolonial trope of hybridity to Renaissance literature, Schmidt explores how early modern English authors, artists, explorers and statesmen framed questions of cultural and artistic heterogeneity. He demonstrates how 'postmodern' considerations can be used to elucidate cultural and literary developments in the English Renaissance, revealing a new dimension in the relation of early modern studies to the concerns of the present.
