Description
 

This collection of interdisciplinary essays from the fields of literary criticism, cultural studies, politics and intellectual history offers new answers to these commonplace questions. These essays explore both elite and popular culture, women and mens experiences, and the encounter between East and West. They provide a comparative view on the range of personal, political and social practices with which early modern people planned for, imagined, manipulated or even rejected the future. Examining poetry, architecture, colonial exploration, technology, drama, satire, wills, childbirth and deathbed rituals, humanism, religious radicalism and republicanism, these essays provide new readings of canonical early modern texts and insights into popular culture.
