{"product_id":"cynthia-angelina-lynch-9781846821073","title":"Cynthia","description":"Cynthia (1604) is a fascinating sonnet sequence by Richard Nugent, a member of a long established Old English dynasty based in County Meath. The poems which record Nugent's hopeless love for an unyielding mistress subtly transpose many of the reigning conceits of Tudor poetry. Cynthia unites the roles of Elizabeth I and a local Irishwoman, simultaneously allegorizing the poet's love of Ireland and his loyalty to the English crown. Nugent's account of the psychic damage wrought by his beloved's cruelty testifies to the difficulties that members of the Old English community had in maintaining these dual and often incompatible allegiances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angelina Lynch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 184682107X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781846821073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Four Courts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.75h x 6.25w x 0.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2010 pg. 242","brand":"Angelina Lynch","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49097080897791,"sku":"9781846821073","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cynthia-angelina-lynch-9781846821073","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
