Abstract

Elizabeth Swann investigates the relationship between the physical sense of taste and taste as a figurative term associated with knowledge and judgment in early modern literature and culture. She argues that - unlike aesthetic taste in the eighteenth century - discriminative taste was entwined with embodied experience in this period. Although taste was tarnished by its associations with Adam and Eve's fall from Eden, it also functioned positively, as a source of useful, and potentially redemptive, literary, spiritual, experimental, and intersubjective knowledge. Taste and Knowledge in Early Modern England juxtaposes canonical literary works by authors such as Shakespeare with a broad range of medical, polemical, theological, philosophical, didactic, and dietetic sources. In doing so, the book reveals the central importance of taste to the experience and articulation of key developments in the literate, religious, and social cultures of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Abstract

Will man aus einer Perspektive der longue durée begreifen, was Literatur ist, dann ist es aufschlussreich, sich mit den Begriffen »Fiktion«, »Wissen« und »Gedächtnis« zu befassen. Der vorliegende Band vereinigt, unterteilt in drei Abschnitte, Einzelstudien, die sich jeweils schwerpunktmäßig auf einen dieser drei Begriffe fokussieren. Dabei werden geeignete theoretische Modelle eingeführt und so zugeschnitten, dass sie textanalytisch nutzbar gemacht werden können. Ziel ist es jeweils, wichtige literaturtheoretische Grundlagen zu entfalten und diese in ihrem Erklärungspotential für literarische Texte zu erschließen. Es kommt dabei auch zu Rückkopplungen zwischen Theoriediskurs und literarischer Praxis, insofern diese nicht selten in selbstreflexiver Form die eigenen Grundlagen thematisiert und implizite Theoriemodelle entwirft. Behandelt werden Texte aus dem Novellino, von Dante, Boccaccio, Cervantes, Diderot, Jean Paul, Foscolo, Balzac, Baudelaire, Zola, Capuana, Proust, Simon, Levi, Semprún, Perec und Modiano. Der Band richtet sich auch an Nicht-Romanisten, weshalb alle romanischsprachigen Zitate übersetzt wurden.

Abstract

How is a body written, and in which ways can literary texts shed light on the tension between immediate bodily expressions and writing if medieval writing practices compete with the new technology of printing? The present volume Escritura somática: La materialidad de la escritura en las literaturas ibéricas de la Edad Media a la temprana modernidad explores the relations between corporality and writing in genres and discourses that are key for understanding the phenomenon. The Iberian perspective, including contributions on Spanish and Portuguese texts, focusses on the materiality of writing with a shared epistemic frame.

Abstract

Through sustained close-readings of Montaigne's essays and Shakespeare's plays, Platt explores both authors' approaches to self, knowledge and form that stress fractures, interruptions and alternatives.
