The Rhetoric of the Body from Ovid to Shakespeare
by Lynn Enterline, Stephen Orgel, Anne Barton, Jonathan Dollimore, Marjorie Garber, Jonathan Goldberg, Nancy Vickers, Peter Holland, Kate Mcluskie
Digital, Published by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-511-15095-1, ISBN: 0-511-15095-4

"This persuasive book describes the complex, often violent connections between body and voice in Ovid's Metamorphoses and narrative, lyric and dramatic works by Petrarch, Marston and Shakespeare. Lynn Enterline analyzes what happens when Renaissance authors revisit Ovid's stories of violence and desire, paying close attention to the ways in which his subversive representations of gender, sexuality and the body influence later conceptions ..."

The Limits of Eroticism in Post-Petrarchan Narrative : Conditional Pleasure from Spenser to Marvell
by Dorothy Stephens, Stephen Orgel, Anne Barton, Jonathan Dollimore, Marjorie Garber, Jonathan Goldberg, Nancy Vickers, Peter Holland, Kate Mcluskie
Digital, Published by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-511-15002-9, ISBN: 0-511-15002-4

"The poet Petrarch imagined that the hopeless but pure love of a woman could lead a man to heaven. In sixteenth-century England Edmund Spenser wrote poetry in the petrarchan tradition while heightening its dilemmas--flirting with a very different kind of feminine image. Dorothy Stephens shows that this flirtation emerges only in conditional language and situations, and that the eroticism the reader feels often belies a narrator's insiste ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-904271-28-4, ISBN: 1-904271-28-6

"After the exotic eroticism of Antony and Cleopatra, Shakespeare returned to Rome for one of his final tragedies, and the change could not have been more dramatic. Coriolanus is one of Shakespeare's harshest and most challenging studies of power, politics and masculinity, based around the life of Caius Marcius. Based on the Roman chronicles of Plutarch's Lives and Livy's History of Rome, the play is set in the early years of the Roman R ..."

The Tribunes banish him and he raises an army to take his revenge on Rome. He finally concedes to the pleas of his mother to spare the city and leaves only to be publicly killed by his former allies.Peter H ..."

by Peter Holland
Published 2016 by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-316-71258-0, ISBN: 1-316-71258-3

"The text of Titus Andronicus asks the Lavinia actor to embrace oxymoron, to use his (or her) body as a 'map of woe, that ... dost talk in signs' (3.2.12), a figurative and emblematic trope pointing to the human cost of the play's central themes: loyalty, revenge, filial duty, the lust for power and dominion. Lavinia's stage and screen body accordingly derives power from the fact that it is a channel through which much of the play's ..."

"This makes for uncomfortable reading alongside David Sturzaker's remarks, quoted earlier, about the same production's 'wonderful', 'mental' and 'raucous' audiences. Rees's report instances a predicament which admits of no easy solutions, and it is little surprise that she states that 'Lavinia has left me with more of a wound than I thought she would. It's something I don't really want to think about.'26 Generally, the actors recogn ..."
