Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was the relationship between power and the public sphere in early modern society? How did the printed media inform this relationship? Contributors to this volume address those questions by examining the interaction of print and power in France and England during the 'hand-press period'. Four interconnected and overlapping themes emerge from these studies, showing the essential historical and contextual considerations shaping the strategies both of power and of those who challenged it via the written word during this period. The first is reading and control, which examines the relationship between institutional power and readers, either as individuals or as a group. A second is propaganda on behalf of institutional power, and the ways in which such writings engage with the rhetorics of power and their reception. The Academy constitutes a third theme, in which contributors explore the economic and political implications of publishing in the context of intellectual elites. The last theme is clientism and faction, which examines the competing political discourses and pressures which influenced widely differing forms of publication. From these articles there emerges a global view of the relationship between print and power, which takes the debate beyond the narrowly theoretical to address fundamental questions of how print sought to challenge, or reinforce, existing power-structures, both from within and from without.

Download or read book Robert Burton on the Melancholic Plague written by Cláudio Alexandre S. Carvalho and published by Ethics International Press. This book was released on 2024-09-26 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an innovative perspective on the melancholic character of English divine, writer and academic Robert Burton (1577–1640) and how it shaped his confrontations with political and academic powers. Delving on his historical context, personal struggles and earlier literary pieces, this enquiry provides a new reading of The Anatomy of Melancholy, revealing its deeper purposes and how these prefigure the tensions at the heart of modern discourses—therapeutic, political, and economic. Along with Burton’s observations on melancholy, the book highlights the emergence of "melancholic observation", a new kind of reflexive and critical stance on the pressing issues of his time This is well expressed in Burton's presentation of 'melancholizing' as a creative activity, which uses the existential stance as the grounding for utopian imagination and projects performative ways to expose the limitations of political and academic powers. Beyond its analysis of Burton's melancholic character, the book provides a wealth of knowledge that enhances the study and teaching of various subjects. It illuminates the transformation of Renaissance medicine and its embeddedness within religious, academic, and literary discourses and practices, offers insights into historical figures associated with the concept of melancholy, explores shifts in philosophical readership during the era, and uncovers the precursors of psychotherapy. By connecting these diverse subjects, it provides an interdisciplinary approach that enriches our understanding of the cultural and intellectual landscape of the time. Robert Burton on the Melancholic Plague invites readers on an intellectual journey through the profound complexities of Robert Burton's masterpiece, The Anatomy of Melancholy. By intertwining existential, socio-political, geographic, economic, and artistic dimensions of Burton’s work, it opens new avenues of exploration, gaining valuable insights into the motivation and depth of his work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'From ca. 1300 a new genre developed in European literature, Neo-Latin drama. Building on medieval drama, vernacular theatre and classical drama, it spread around Europe. It was often used as a means to educate young boys in Latin, in acting and in moral issues. Comedies, tragedies and mixed forms were written. The Societas Jesu employed Latin drama in their education and public relations on a large scale. They had borrowed the concept of this drama from the humanist and Protestant gymnasia, and perfected it to a multi media show. However, the genre does not receive the attention that it deserves. In this volume, a historical overview of this genre is given, as well as analyses of separate plays.'--From publisher's website.

Download or read book Robert Burton’s Rhetoric written by Susan Wells and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in five editions between 1621 and 1651, The Anatomy of Melancholy marks a unique moment in the development of disciplines, when fields of knowledge were distinct but not yet restrictive. In Robert Burton’s Rhetoric, Susan Wells analyzes the Anatomy, demonstrating how its early modern practices of knowledge and persuasion can offer a model for transdisciplinary scholarship today. In the first decades of the seventeenth century, Robert Burton attempted to gather all the existing knowledge about melancholy, drawing from professional discourses including theology, medicine, and philology as well as the emerging sciences. Examining this text through a rhetorical lens, Wells provides an account of these disciplinary exchanges in all their subtle variety and abundant wit, showing that questions of how knowledge is organized and how it is made persuasive are central to rhetorical theory. Ultimately, Wells argues that in addition to a book about melancholy, Burton’s Anatomy is a meditation on knowledge. A fresh interpretation of The Anatomy of Melancholy, this volume will be welcomed by scholars of early modern English and the rhetorics of health and medicine, as well as those interested in transdisciplinary work and rhetorical theory.
