Memorable instances of this tendency include the representation of love as a schoolroom exercise conducted under the disciplinary gaze of the mistress, melancholy as a process of gradual decline like the declension of the noun, and courtship as a practice in which the participants are arranged like the parts of speech in a sentence. The Grammar Rules of Affection explores this synthesis of the affective and the pedagogical in Renaissance literature, analysing examples of it in major texts by Philip Sidney, William Shakespeare, and Ben Jonson. Drawing on philosophical approaches to emotion, theories of social practice, and the history of education, this book argues that emotions appear in Renaissance literature as conventional, rule-guided practices rather than internal states. This claim represents a novel intervention in the historical study of emotion, departing from the standard approaches to emotions as either corporeal phenomena or mental states. Combining linguistic philosophy and theory of emotion, The Grammar Rules of Affection works to overcome this dualistic crux by locating emotion in the expressions and practices of everyday life."--Provided by publisher.Emotions in literatureEducation, Humanistic, in literatureFigures of speech in literatureEnglish literatureEarly modern, 1500-1700History and criticismCriticism, interpretation, etc.fastAstrophil and Stella.Ben Jonson.Hamlet.Love’s Labour’s Lost.Philip Sidney.Renaissance literature.The Grammar School.William Shakespeare.education.history of emotion.language.pedagogy.Emotions in literature.Education, Humanistic, in literature.Figures of speech in literature.English literatureHistory and criticism.820.9/35309031cci1icclaccKnecht Ross1979-1730559MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910838213403321The grammar rules of affection4141775UNINA
