9781501517938: Architectural Rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser

Synopsis

This book discusses how Shakespeare and Spenser configure the body and mind as a besieged castle or house; a walled city vulnerable to ruin; or as a built environment surrounded by the elements of earth, air, fire, or water. Building on current approaches to the subject of place and movement in terms of cognitive theory, ecocriticism, and posthumanism, Jennifer C. Vaught illustrates how architectural rhetoric in Shakespeare and Spenser provides a bridge between the human body and mind and the nonhuman world of stone and timber.
