A reassessment of the historic relation between money and the state through the lens of early modern English literature, Coinage and State Formation examines the political implications of the monetary form in light of material and visual properties of coins as well as the persistence of both intrinsic and extrinsic theories of value.
"In this exciting study, Stephen Deng combines the new materialist method with the 'new economic criticism' practiced by such critics as Marc Shell and Jean-Joseph Goux to produce some remarkable insights into an array of literary texts . . . Coinage and State Formation is an indispensible text for anyone seeking to understand the relations among money, subjectivity, and political authority in early modern England. Given the continued pertinence of these issues in our own time, it will undoubtedly attract numerous enthusiastic readers. Anyone feeling slightly weary of the new materialism's infatuation with objects will be grateful for Deng's bracing, long-overdue return to political engagement." - The Journal of British Studies
"A pertinent and timely intervention in the debate concerning the nature of money in Renaissance England. Through an impressively broad array of literary and cultural readings, Deng clearly establishes the vital role money played in the process of state formation. His insights into the relation between coinage and idolatry, tyranny, and the ethics of representation have obvious repercussions for our own age, and make this book important to anyone concerned about the current state of capitalism. This book is sure to remain influential on literary and economic studies for many years to come." - David Hawkes, Professor of English, Arizona State University
"Deng s book offers a detailed and fresh reappraisal of early modern coinage - what both Shakespeare and Marx call the visible god - as the turnstile through which radically opposed concepts of matter and spirit, economics and religion, and intrinsic and extrinsic value endlessly circulate. Deng s singular contributionis to show how this circulation subtends modern formations of nationhood and sovereignty." - Jonathan Gil Harris, Professor and Director of Graduate Studies Department of English, George Washington University
