Bringing together the fields of material culture and militarism, Susan Harlan argues that the notion of ?spoiling? ? or the sanctioned theft of the arms and armor of the vanquished in battle ? provides a way of thinking about England?s relationship to its violent cultural inheritance. She demonstrates how writers reconstituted the spoils of antiquity and the Middle Ages in an imagined military struggle between male bodies. An analysis of scenes of arming and disarming across texts by Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare and tributes to Sir Philip Sidney reveals a pervasive militant nostalgia: a cultural fascination with moribund models and technologies of war. Readers will not only gain a better understanding of humanism but also a new way of thinking about violence and cultural production in Renaissance England. 410 0$aEarly Modern Cultural Studies 1500?1700,$x2634-5897 606 $aPoetry 606 $aLiterature, Modern 606 $aLiterature?Philosophy 606 $aCulture?Study and teaching 606 $aBritish literature 606 $aLiterature?History and criticism 606 $aPoetry and Poetics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/824000 606 $aEarly Modern/Renaissance Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/817000 606 $aLiterary Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/812000 606 $aCultural Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411130 606 $aBritish and Irish Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000 606 $aLiterary History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/813000 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 615 0$aPoetry. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern. 615 0$aLiterature?Philosophy. 615 0$aCulture?Study and teaching. 615 0$aBritish literature. 615 0$aLiterature?History and criticism. 615 14$aPoetry and Poetics. 615 24$aEarly Modern/Renaissance Literature. 615 24$aLiterary Theory. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 615 24$aBritish and Irish Literature. 615 24$aLiterary History. 676 $a820.93581 700 $aHarlan$b Susan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01057981 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255248803321 996 $aMemories of War in Early Modern England$92496257 997 $aUNINA
