Yearly volume of the best essays submitted to the Southeastern
Renaissance Conference, focusing on sexuality in Elizabethan
poetry, Renaissance drama and its links to the wider culture, and
on seventeenth-century literature. Renaissance Papers collects the
best scholarly essays submitted each year to the Southeastern
Renaissance Conference. The 2012 volume opens with two essays on
sexuality in Elizabethan narrative poetry: on homoeroticism in
Spenser's Faerie Queene and on Shakespeare's "swerve" into
Lucretian imagery in Venus and Adonis. The volume then turns to
Renaissance drama and its links to the wider culture: the
commodification of spirit in Marlowe's Doctor Faustus,
Shakespeare's evocation of the Acts of the Apostles in The Comedy
of Errors, "summoning" in Hamlet and King Lear, discourses of
procreation and generation in Antony and Cleopatra, trade and
gender in John Webster's Devil's Law-Case, and an examination of
street scenes in Romeo and Juliet in relation to Paul's Cross
Churchyard, the hub of the London bookselling market in the early
modern period. The volume closes with essays on seventeenth-century
literature and literary culture: on the "puritan logic" of the
elder Andrew Marvell in his famous son's poem "To His Coy
Mistress," on the "sociable lexicography" of a Royalist polymath
attempting to reconcile with the English Commonwealth, and on the
underestimated roles of Urania in Milton's Paradise Lost.
