{"product_id":"refiguring-mimesis-jonathan-holmes-9781902806358","title":"Refiguring Mimesis: Representation in Early Modern Literature","description":"Focusing squarely on the strength of mimesis as a philosophical idea, this collection of essays considers aspects of mimesis ranging from Shakespeare to colonialism. As the philosophical agenda of major thinkers and writers responds to representational crises like post-structuralism and postmodernism, attention is turning away from artistic expressivity and back towards uses of mimesis. The nine included essays present a varied set of theoretical ideas and challenge the ingrained concept that mimesis is only a transparent reflection of reality. This fresh assessment of an ancient and much-cited practice brings new attention to the ways in which the early modern period made use of such representation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Holmes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1902806352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781902806358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Hertfordshire Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Jonathan Holmes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49097090334975,"sku":"9781902806358","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/refiguring-mimesis-jonathan-holmes-9781902806358","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
