Conversion Narratives in Early Modern England: Tales of Turning: Early Modern Literature in History
Autor Abigail Shinnen Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 oct 2018
This book is a study of English conversion narratives between 1580 and 1660. Focusing on the formal, stylistic properties of these texts, it argues that there is a direct correspondence between the spiritual and rhetorical turn. Furthermore, by focusing on a comparatively early period in the history of the conversion narrative the book charts for the first time writers’ experimentation and engagement with rhetorical theory before the genre’s relative stabilization in the 1650s. A cross confessional study analyzing work by both Protestant and Catholic writers, this book explores conversion’s relationship with reading; the links between conversion, eloquence, translation and trope; the conflation of spiritual movement with literal travel; and the use of the body as a site for spiritual knowledge and proof.

Caracteristici
Examines previously ignored interactions and negotiations between conversion and rhetoric in both Protestant and Catholic narratives Places conversion at the heart of the structuring of the English language during a period in which English identities and cultural practices were being reformulated after the Reformation, and encounters with other lands and faith communities Brings together the concerns of spiritual autobiography, literary studies and rhetoric with a new emphasis upon conversion and reveals the literary complexity of conversion narratives
