Women (Re)Writing Milton: Routledge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture

Editat de Mandy Green, Sharihan Al-Akhras
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 mai 2021
This volume of essays reconfigures the reception history of Milton and his works by bringing to the fore women reading, writing, and rewriting Milton, bringing together in conversation a range of voices from diverse historical, cultural, religious, and social contexts across the globe and through the centuries. The book encompasses a rich range of different literary genres, artistic media, and academic disciplines and draws on the research of established Milton scholars and new Miltonists. Like the female authors and artists whom they explore, the contributors take up a variety of standpoints. As well as revisiting the work of established figures, the volume brings new female creative artists, new subjects, and new approaches to the study of Milton.

Recenzii

  "Scholarly attention to the transnational reception of Milton's poetry and prose began in earnest at the International Milton Symposium at the University of Exeter in 2015, and is now offered to a broad readership in this lively collection of wide-ranging, thoughtful, and accessible essays. With the publication of this volume, England can no longer claim exclusive ownership of Milton." Mary Nyquist, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of Toronto
 
"This is no ordinary collection on Milton and women. The editors have cast their net well beyond the usual scholarly circles and academic subjects. The result is an exciting volume that extends into contemporary issues such as race and gender fluidity (Milton’s Spirits ‘when they please, can either sex assume, or both’). It also looks at fresh ways into Milton’s female readers, and how their responses are expressed creatively in imaginative writing and visual art and performance. The Milton that emerges from this volume is not the canonical figure of Anglo-American academic study, but a global figure whose poetry reverberates through many cultures." Gordon Campbell, Emeritus Professor and Fellow in Renaissance Studies at the University of Leicester.
 
"Contributors to this present, ground-breaking volume do not speak with one voice. Rather, like the female authors and artists whom they explore, they evince a variety of stances. Bringing new female figures, new subjects, and new approaches to the study of Milton, they foreground appropriation and gender in fresh and provocative ways that warrant further pursuit." Laura Knoppers, Professor of English at the University of Notre Dame and editor of Milton Studies
 
"Women (Re)Writing Milton will revitalize the way we think about Milton and gender. The essays in the collection offer a brilliant array of perspectives on the ways in which women writers and artists through centuries and across cultures have re-imagined Milton’s works. Invariably engaging, often unexpected in their subject matter, these essays herald the beginning of a more generous and inclusive approach to Milton’s reception history." Karen L Edwards, Professor of English, University of Exeter
