Fourteen leading international scholars provide accessible and authoritative chapters on all relevant topics: from Shakespeare's seminal role in the development of English poetry, the wide-ranging practice of his poetic form, and his enigmatic place in print and manuscript culture, to his immersion in English Renaissance politics, religion, classicism, and gender dynamics. With individual chapters on Venus and Adonis, The Rape of Lucrece, The Passionate Pilgrim, 'The Phoenix and the Turtle', the Sonnets, and A Lover's Complaint, the Companion also includes chapters on the presence of poetry in the dramatic works, on the relation between poetry and performance, and on the reception and influence of the poems. The volume includes a chronology of Shakespeare's life, a note on reference works, and a reading list for each chapter Introduction : Shakespeare's poetry in the twenty-first century / Patrick Cheney -- Shakespeare and the development of English poetry / William J. Kennedy -- Rhetoric, style, and poetic form / John Roe -- Print and manuscript / Lukas Erne -- Venus and Adonis / Coppélia Kahn -- The rape of Lucrece / Catherine Belsey -- The passionate pilgrim and 'The phoenix and the turtle' / James P.

    We have become used to looking at art from a stance of detachment. In order to be objective, we create a 'mental space' between ourselves and the objects of our investigation, separating internal and external worlds. This detachment dates back to the early modern period, when researchers in a wide variety of fields tried to describe material objects as 'things in themselves' - things, that is, without the admixture of imagination. Generations of scholars have heralded this shift as the Renaissance 'discovery' of the observable world. Here, Rachel Eisendrath explores how poetry responded to this new detachment by becoming a repository for a more complex experience of the world.

    "Tracing the development of narrative verse in London's literary circles during the 1590s, this volume puts Shakespeare's Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece into conversation with poems by a wide variety of contemporary writers, including Thomas Lodge, Francis Beaumont, Christopher Marlowe, Thomas Heywood, Thomas Campion and Edmund Spenser. Chapters investigate the complexities of this literary conversation and contribute for the current, vigorous reassessment of humanism's intended consequences by drawing attention to the highly diverse forms of early modern classicism as well as the complex connection between Latin pedagogy and vernacular poetic invention. Key themes and topics include: Epyllia, masculinity and sexuality, Classicism and commerce, Genre and mimesis, Rhetoric and aesthetics."--Bloomsbury Publishing Series Preface -- Notes on Contributors -- Lynn Enterline, Introduction: On 'Schoolmen's Cunning Notes' -- Part One.

    To recent studies of Renaissance subjectivity, Anxious Masculinity in Early Modern England contributes the argument that masculinity is unavoidably anxious and volatile in cultures that distribute power and authority according to patriarchal prerogatives. Drawing from current arguments in feminism, cultural studies, historicism, psychoanalysis and gay studies, Mark Breitenberg explores the dialectic of desire and anxiety in masculine subjectivity in the work of a wide range of writers, including Shakespeare, Bacon, Burton and the women writers of the 'querelles des femmes' debate, especially Jane Anger. Breitenberg discusses jealousy and cuckoldry anxiety, hetero and homoerotic desire, humoural psychology, anatomical difference, cross-dressing and the idea of honour and reputation. He traces masculine anxiety both as a sign of ideological contradiction and, paradoxically, as a productive force in the perpetuation of western patriarchal systems 1.

    This Companion provides a full introduction to the poetry of William Shakespeare through discussion of his freestanding narrative poems, the Sonnets, and his plays. Fourteen leading international scholars provide accessible and authoritative chapters on all relevant topics: from Shakespeare's seminal role in the development of English poetry, the wide-ranging practice of his poetic form, and his enigmatic place in print and manuscript culture, to his immersion in English Renaissance politics, religion, classicism, and gender dynamics. With individual chapters on Venus and Adonis, The Rape of Lucrece, The Passionate Pilgrim, 'The Phoenix and the Turtle', the Sonnets, and A Lover's Complaint, the Companion also includes chapters on the presence of poetry in the dramatic works, on the relation between poetry and performance, and on the reception and influence of the poems. The volume includes a chronology of Shakespeare's life, a note on reference works, and a reading list for each chapter.

    "In discussing Shakespeare's Sonnets and narrative poems, this book focuses on their sceptical cast of thought, on their concern with what wisdom might be in human conduct and with how far human conduct might be governable by wisdom, and on their preoccupation with knowing, inventing, or reinventing the past. It focuses on their exploration of the relations among self-knowledge, sexuality, and death, as well as on their ambiguous figuring of gender. In doing so it considers the relations between Shakespeare's non-dramatic verse, and, in particular, that of his contemporaries; it also considers the relations between Shakespeare's non-dramatic verse and his plays (Iii) Tarquin, Lucrece and Collatine(iv) The rape of Lucrece; (v) Lucrece, Troy and Brutus; Chapter 3 Shakespeare's Sonnets 1-19: The Young Man, the Poet and Father Time; (i) Introduction. Petrarch, Sidney and the Elizabethan sonnet; (ii) Narcissus called to account; (iii) The economy of nature, Father Time and the wisdom of Narcissus; Chapter 4 Shakespeare's Sonnets 20-126: The Poet, the Young Man, Androgyny and Friendship; (i) Introduction. Narcissus and Adonis; (ii) Sonnet 20. Fictions and discourses; (iii) Desire and its discontents; (iv) Losing and keeping.

Adonis, Narcissus and metamorphosis; (v) Adonis, the narrator and the male gaze. Marlowe's Hero and Leander and Donne's 'Elegy 19'; Chapter 2 Lucrece; (i) Versions of the Lucretia story by Ovid, Livy, Boccaccio, Chaucer and Gower; (ii) Genres. Offering new interpretations of the Sonnets and narrative poems, the book highlights their sensitivity to the paradoxicality and elusiveness of human experience. It is the first comprehensive study of the Sonnets and narrative poems for over a decade."--Jacket
