In Lucretius, and in the strain of thought followed in this study, matter is always in motion, always differing from itself and yet always also made of the same stuff. From the pious Lucy Hutchinson?s all but complete translation of the Roman epic poem to Margaret Cavendish?s repudiation of atomism (but not of its fundamental problematic of sameness and difference), a central concern of this book ishow a thoroughgoing materialism can be read alongside other strains in the thought of the early modern period, particularly Christianity.A chapter moves from Milton?s monism to his angels and their insistent corporeality. Milton?s angels have sex, and, throughout, this study emphasizes the consequences for thinking about sexuality offered by Lucretian materialism. Sameness of matter is not simply a question of same-sex sex, and the relations of atoms in Cavendish and Hutchinson are replicated in the terms in which they imagine marriages of partners who are also their doubles. Likewise, Spenser?s knights in the 1590 Faerie Queene pursue the virtues of Holiness, Temperance, and Chastity in quests that take the reader on a path of askesis of the kind that Lucretiusrecommends and that Foucault studied in the final volumes of his history of sexuality.Although English literature is the book?s main concern, it first contemplates relations between Lucretian matter and Pauline flesh by way of Tintoretto?s painting The Conversion of St. Paul. Theoretical issues raised in the work of Agamben and Badiou, among others, lead to a chapter that takes up the role that Lucretius has played in theory, from Bergson and Marx to Foucault and Deleuze.This study should be of concern to students of religion, philosophy, gender, and sexuality, especially as they impinge on questions of representation. 606 $aEnglish literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aMaterial culture in literature 606 $aPhilosophy in literature 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aMaterial culture in literature. 615 0$aPhilosophy in literature. 676 $a820.9/353809031 700 $aGoldberg$b Jonathan$0251465 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780967303321 996 $aThe seeds of things$93728550 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01516nam0 22003373i 450 001 NAP0566278 005 20251003044256.0 010 $a0631176578 100 $a20130319d1991 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aeng 102 $ait 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 1 $aModernism as a philosophical problem$eon the dissatisfactions of European high culture$fRobert B.
