Drawing on a wide range of materials, both literary and nonliterary, Elsky focuses on the impact of speech-oriented and writing-dominated theories of language on textual practice. Among the texts Elsky discusses are Herbert's The Temple, Bacon's Magna Instauratio, Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy, Jonson 's lyrics, and works by Lily, Colet, Ascham, and Elyot.In showing how speech, writing, and print suggest contrasting foundations for the authority of language, Elsky considers such topics as the competing concepts of textuality in humanist literature and in hieroglyphic poetry; the authenticity of writing and the distortions of speech in scientific prose works; the social context of printing scientific prose; and the use of print to create the infinitely expandable text of philosophical skepticism.A provocative application of contemporary literary theory to the historical analysis of texts, Authorizing Words will interest readers in such disciplines as Renaissance studies, theory of language, historical linguistics, history of science, and the history of communication. 606 $aEnglish language$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish language$xHistory. 676 $a306.44221 700 $aElsky$b Martin$0547209 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467169903321 996 $aAuthorizing words$9882316 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01574nam 2200517 450 001 9910460617903321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-78183-056-8 035 $a(CKB)3710000000502009 035 $a(EBL)3440191 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001679974 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16495841 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001679974 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)15028140 035 $a(PQKB)10896353 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3440191 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3440191 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11094591 035 $a(OCoLC)919481095 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000502009 100 $a20150908h20132013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGeneration, distribution, and utilization of electrical energy /$fC.
