Considering a wide range of early modern texts, performances and
artworks, the essays in this collection demonstrate how attention
to the senses illuminates the literature, art and culture of early
modern England. Examining canonical and less familiar literary
works alongside early modern texts ranging from medical treatises
to conduct manuals via puritan polemic and popular ballads, the
collection offers a new view of the senses in early modern England.
The volume offers dedicated essays on each of the five senses, each
relating works of art to their cultural moments, whilst elsewhere
the volume considers the senses collectively in particular cultural
contexts. It also pursues the sensory experiences that early modern
subjects encountered through the very acts of engaging with texts,
performances and artworks. This book will appeal to scholars of
early modern literature and culture, to those working in sensory
studies, and to anyone interested in the art and life of early
modern England. -- .
