Engaging various historical and theoretical perspectives, the essays in this volume bring affect to bear on early modern representations of bodies, passions, and social relations by exploring: the role of embodiment in political subjectivity and action; the interactions of human and non-human bodies within ecological systems; and the social and physiological dynamics of theatrical experience. Examining the complexly embodied experiences of leisure, sympathy, staged violence, courtiership, envy, suicide, and many other topics, the contributors open up new ways of understanding how Renaissance writers thought about the capacities, pleasures, and vulnerabilities of the human body. .Palgrave Studies in Affect Theory and Literary Criticism,2634-632XEuropean literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600European literatureLiteraturePhilosophyCultureStudy and teachingLiteratureHistory and criticismEarly Modern and Renaissance LiteratureEuropean LiteratureLiterary TheoryCultural TheoryLiterary HistoryEuropean literatureEuropean literature.LiteraturePhilosophy.CultureStudy and teaching.LiteratureHistory and criticism.Early Modern and Renaissance Literature.European Literature.Literary Theory.Cultural Theory.Literary History.809Bailey Amanda1966-edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDiGangi Marioedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910255072203321Affect Theory and Early Modern Texts2188086UNINA
