Richard Chamberlain

Radical Spenser

Pastoral, Politics and the New Aestheticism

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Through a series of detailed readings, Chamberlain proposes alternative strategies for interpreting Spenser's works, including a politicized "new aestheticism," ecocriticism, and pastoral theory. Chamberlain suggests that Spenser's texts demand a reading that is at once political and sensitive to aesthetic surprise.
