Within the historical literary genre, stylistics is widely
applicable but as yet under deployed. This book acts as a showcase
for the range of analysis possible. Although the analytic focus
within the genre has traditionally been on literary criticism,
stylistics has much to offer. Bringing together text and context,
Patricia Canning synthesizes stylistic models with literary theory
and critical theory. The historical and contextual focus throughout
the book is on religious, political and ideological issues that
animated and defined Reformation England. Each chapter interrogates
the dichotomous concept of 'word' and 'image' by considering the
ways in which writers of this period deal with these contentious
subjects in their dramatic and poetic works. 'Representation' is
proposed not just as a matter of semiotics but of ideology.
