It has been over two decades since the publication of the last major edited collection focused on psychoanalysis and early modern culture. In Shakespeare studies, the New Historicism and cognitive psychology have hindered a dynamic conversation engaging depth-oriented models of the mind from taking place. The essays in New Psychoanalytic Readings of Shakespeare: Cool Reason and Seething Brains seek to redress this situation, by engaging a broad spectrum of psychoanalytic theory and criticism, from Freud to the present, to read individual plays closely. These essays show how psychoanalytic theory helps us to rethink the plays’ history of performance; their treatment of gender, sexuality, and race; their view of history and trauma; and the ways in which they anticipate contemporary psychodynamic treatment. Far from simply calling for a conventional "return to Freud," the essays collected here initiate an exciting conversation between Shakespeare studies and psychoanalysis in the hopes of radically transforming both disciplines. It is time to listen, once again, to seething brains.
In this book, Stone effects a return to gender, after many years of neglect by Twenty-First-Century critics, via a methodology of close reading that foregrounds moments of sexual decentering and disequilibrium within the text and in the interstices of the dialogue between Shakespeare and his critics. Issues addressed range from the cross dressing of Viola and Imogen to the cross gartering of Malvolio, the sound of "un" and the uncanny lyric narcissism of Richard II, Hamlet s misogyny, androgyny, and the poison of marital/political "union," Othello s fears of impotence, rumors of Antony s emasculation versus the militant yet nurturing triumphalism of Cleopatra s suicide, and Posthumus s hysterical reaction to the "woman s part" in himself and his compensatory fantasies of parthenogenesis. Stone unpacks ideologically powerful but unsustainable male claims to self-identity and sameness, set over against man s type-gendering of women as the origin of divisive sexual difference, discord, and the dissolution of marriage. Men who blame women for the difference that divides and weakens their sense of unity and sameness to oneself are unconscious that the uncanny feminine is not outside the masculine, its reassuring canny opposite; it is inside the masculine, its uncanny difference from itself.

This is a compilation of family notes on the Genealogy of "The Family of Cephus French Stone and Eliza Jane Fowler Stone", who lived in Carroll and Wythe counties of southwestern Virginia during the late 1800's. Cephus and Eliza had ten children, who gave them sixty grandchildren. The book traces ancestry lineage back to the birth of Christopher Hurste, who was born in Buckinghamshire, England, in 1525, and connects it to the thousands of living members of the family alive today who can claim to be direct descendants of Cephus & Eliza Stone. This edition provides newly added information to help understand how our family participated as the European explorers populated the New World. There is a new section in this edition showing cemetery locations where our relatives have been laid to rest.
