{"product_id":"five-words-roland-greene-9780226709710","title":"Five Words: Critical Semantics in the Age of Shakespeare and Cervantes","description":"Blood. Invention. Language. Resistance. World. Five ordinary words that do a great deal of conceptual work in everyday life and literature. In this original experiment in critical semantics, Roland Greene considers how these words changed over the course of the sixteenth century and what their changes indicate about broader forces in science, politics, and other disciplines. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Rather than analyzing works, careers, or histories, Greene discusses a broad swath of Renaissance and transatlantic literature--including Shakespeare, Cervantes, Cams, and Milton--in terms of the development of these five words. Aiming to shift the conversation around Renaissance literature from current approaches to riskier enterprises, Greene also proposes new methods that take advantage of digital resources like full-text databases, but still depend on the interpreter to fashion ideas out of ordinary language. \u003ci\u003eFive Words\u003c\/i\u003e is an innovative and accessible book that points the field of literary studies in an exciting new direction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roland Greene\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022670971X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226709710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.51d","brand":"Roland Greene","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946348085503,"sku":"9780226709710","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5a2e73ed-148b-4318-9664-925b4c6f2b40.jpg?v=1681512633","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/five-words-roland-greene-9780226709710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
