    Cross-Dressing and the Politics of Dismemberment in Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher’s Philaster

    Article | Contributeur(s): Marie H. Loughlin

    Critics often dismiss cross-dressing in Beaumont and Fletcher's Philaster as a meretricious dramatic trick. In reality, cross-dressing becomes a nexus for the play's pervasive anxieties concerning bodily and vestimentary codes, with major characters staking their conflicting claims to political...

    Speech Versus Spectacle: Autolycus, Class and Containment in The Winter's Tale

    Article | Contributeur(s): Ronald W. Cooley

    Shakespeare's Winter's Tale is a play in which theatrical spectacle triumphs over speech, as stage action obscures the incoherence of verbal representation. This paper identifies Autolycus as a composite of Jacobean anxieties about the sources of social instability, and explores his place in this...

    Thomas More's Utopia: Preface to Reformation

    Article | Contributeur(s): Walter M. Gordon

    Recent studies have stressed the ambiguity of Thomas More's Utopia. Although the essay does not argue against this view, it does point to the clear and basic contention of the work which, if lost, makes it impossible to come to grips with the questions the book poses. Utopia criticizes the upper,...
