Book Ashgate Critical Essays on Women Writers in England  1550 1700

Download or read book Ashgate Critical Essays on Women Writers in England 1550 1700 written by Margaret P. Hannay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Sidney Herbert, Countess of Pembroke, was renowned in her own time for her metrical translation of biblical Psalms, several original poems, translations from French and Italian, and her literary patronage. William Shakespeare used her Antonius as a source, Edmund Spenser celebrated her original poems, John Donne praised her Psalmes, and Lady Mary Wroth and Aemilia Lanyer depicted her as an exemplary poet. Arguably the first Englishwoman to be celebrated as a literary figure, she has also attracted considerable modern attention, including more than two hundred critical studies. This volume offers a brief introduction to her life and an extensive overview of the critical reception of her works, reprints some of the most essential and least accessible essays about her life and writings, and includes a full bibliography.

Book The Countess of Pembroke s Antonie

Download or read book The Countess of Pembroke s Antonie written by Robert Garnier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Countess of Pembroke's Antonie The importance of Lady Pembroke's Anionic in the literary history of the sixteenth century, and the influence which it exercised upon a small circle of poets can best be made clear after a brief consideration of her life, of her position in a circle which included some of the most brilliant minds of the age, and of her literary work aside from Anionic. Prolonged search in all available sources has yielded little that throws new light upon the long-dimmed story of Mary Sidney, afterwards Countess of Pembroke. Although evidently the friend of so many, she has left no letters of any value to a biographer. In all the Sidney literature, there is no record in personal letters of her devoted friendship with her brother Philip, or of that keen sympathy with his literary tastes to which we owe the Arcadia.

Book The Tragedy of Mariam

    Book Details:
  • Author : Elizabeth Cary
  • Publisher : Broadview Press
  • Release : 2000-12-13
  • ISBN : 9781551110431
  • Pages : 204 pages

Download or read book The Tragedy of Mariam written by Elizabeth Cary and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2000-12-13 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1613, The Tragedy of Mariam, the Fair Queen of Jewry is probably the first play in English known to have been authored by a woman, and it has become increasingly popular in the study of early modern women’s writing. The play, which Cary based on the story of Herod and Mariam, turns on a rumour of Herod’s death, and unfolds around the actions taken by the patriarch’s family and servants in his absence. In part a critique of male power, the play sets gender politics in sharp relief against a background of dynastic conflict and Roman imperialism.
