In doing so, it parts ways with past interpretations of melancholy. Tilting the English Renaissance against the present moment, Daniel argues that the basic disciplinary tension between medicine and philosophy persists within contemporary debates about emotional embodiment. To make this case, the book binds together the paintings of Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver, the drama of Shakespeare, the prose of Burton, and the poetry of Milton. Crossing borders and periods, Daniel combines recent theories which have--until now--been regarded as incongruous by their respective advocates. Asking fundamental questions about how the experience of emotion produces community, the book will be of interest to scholars of early modern literature, psychoanalysis, the affective turn, and continental philosophy"--Provided by publisher.English literatureEarly modern, 1500-1700History and criticismTheory, etcAffect (Psychology) in literatureKnowledge, Theory of, in literatureLiterature and scienceGreat BritainHistoryArt and literatureGreat BritainHistoryScience in literatureSciencePhilosophyRenaissanceEnglandEnglish literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.Affect (Psychology) in literature.Knowledge, Theory of, in literature.Literature and scienceHistory.Art and literatureHistory.Science in literature.SciencePhilosophy.Renaissance820.9/353LIT000000LIT015000LIT004120bisacshDaniel Drew1971-1660956MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822614203321The melancholy assemblage4016548UNINA
