Redefining Elizabethan Literature (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780521831239)

Exploring one of the most remarkable decades in English literary history, the 1590s, Georgia Brown focuses on the changing perceptions of the aesthetic. Brown reveals how the period's obsession with shame was expressed in fragmentary and marginal literary forms such as the sonnet sequence, epyllion and complaint. Combining theoretical perspectives with structural analysis, she studies the historical and ideological forces inscribed in rhetorical and formal developments.
