Hannah Lavery

The Impotency Poem from Ancient Latin to Restoration English Literature (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The first book length study of the motif of impotency in poetry from early antiquity through to the late Restoration, this book explores the impotency poem as a recognisable form of poetry in the longer tradition of erotic elegy. Hannah Lavery demonstrates that impotency poems can be seen on one level to represent bawdy escapism, but on the other to offer positions of resistance and opposition to social and political concerns contemporary to a particular time.
