Kasey Evans tracks the migration of ideas surrounding temperance from classical and humanist writings through to sixteenth- and seventeenth-century applications, emphasizing the ways in which they have transcended the vocabularies of geography and time. Colonial Virtue offers fresh insights into how English Renaissance writers used temperance as a privileged lens through which to view New World morality and politically to justify colonial practices in Virginia and the West Indies. Evans uses literary texts, including The Fairie Queene and The Tempest, and sources such as sermons, dictionaries, and visual artifacts, to navigate alliances between traditional semantics and post-colonial political criticism. Beautifully written and deeply engaging, Colonial Virtue also models an expansive methodology for literary studies through its close readings and rhetorical analyses. 606 $aEnglish literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aTemperance$zEngland$xHistory 606 $aTemperance$xColonies$zGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aLiterature and society$xColonies$zGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aTemperance in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aTemperance$xHistory. 615 0$aTemperance$xColonies$xHistory. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xColonies$xHistory. 615 0$aTemperance in literature. 676 $a820.9/353 700 $aEvans$b Kasey$f1976-$0967925 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452356403321 996 $aColonial virtue$92198237 997 $aUNINA
