Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Strawberry Handkerchief: A Romance of the Stamp Act One hundred and fifty years ago there was not in New York a more picturesque dwelling than that of Captain Jansen Van Vroom. For, speaking broadly, the Dutch house is as full of character as the Dutch man; it is, in fact, the outward and visible sign of a mentality, quite unique and distinctive. No Englishman, no American, no Frenchman, or Italian, ever builds his residence after the order of Holland. It would not represent him, it would never be the home of his feelings and his imagination. But Captain Jansen's house was a solid reflection of the domestic side of his character; he had been building it in his heart and mind twenty years, before he realized it in its material beauty. As he stood by the wheel of his ship, or walked her deck, he was always planning the light, spacious rooms, the lockers and closets, the low, wide stairways, the walls wainscoted with native woods or panels of Dutch tiles. Its gilded weathercock, its red-tiled roof, the picturesque plenty of its gables - with their ends notched like steps fowards the street - the blending of bricks of various colors, glazed and laid in checkers on the wall, the window caps of bricks set edgewise - the immense square chimneys - the kindly looking doorway opening in half, and above it cut in large white stone the motto he had himself composed: "My Captain has brought me into a good Haven." These things were slowly, but very clearly, evolved from his mentality, and so plainly set in order before the building began, that any deviation would doubtless have plunged him into a distracted perplexity.

Download or read book Pens and Needles written by Susan Frye and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-11-29 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renaissance woman, whether privileged or of the artisan or the middle class, was trained in the expressive arts of needlework and painting, which were often given precedence over writing. Pens and Needles is the first book to examine all these forms as interrelated products of self-fashioning and communication. Because early modern people saw verbal and visual texts as closely related, Susan Frye discusses the connections between the many forms of women's textualities, including notes in samplers, alphabets both stitched and penned, initials, ciphers, and extensive texts like needlework pictures, self-portraits, poetry, and pamphlets, as well as commissioned artwork, architecture, and interior design. She examines works on paper and cloth by such famous figures as Elizabeth I, Mary, Queen of Scots, and Bess of Hardwick, as well as the output of journeywomen needleworkers and miniaturists Levina Teerlinc and Esther Inglis, and their lesser-known sisters in the English colonies of the New World. Frye shows how traditional women's work was a way for women to communicate with one another and to shape their own identities within familial, intellectual, religious, and historical traditions. Pens and Needles offers insights into women's lives and into such literary texts as Shakespeare's Othello and Cymbeline and Mary Sidney Wroth's Urania.
Book Synopsis Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare's England by : Ruben Espinosa
Download or read book Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare's England written by Ruben Espinosa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare's England offers a new approach to evaluating the psychological 'loss' of the Virgin Mary in post-Reformation England by illustrating how, in the wake of Mary's demotion, re-inscriptions of her roles and meanings only proliferated, seizing hold of national imagination and resulting in new configurations of masculinity. The author surveys the early modern cultural and literary response to Mary's marginalization, and argues that Shakespeare employs both Roman Catholic and post-Reformation views of Marian strength not only to scrutinize cultural perceptions of masculinity, but also to offer his audience new avenues of exploring both religious and gendered subjectivity. By deploying Mary's symbolic valence to infuse certain characters, and dramatic situations with feminine potency, Espinosa analyzes how Shakespeare draws attention to the Virgin Mary as an alternative to an otherwise unilaterally masculine outlook on salvation and gendered identity formation.

Book Synopsis Early Modern Visual Culture by : Peter Erickson
Download or read book Early Modern Visual Culture written by Peter Erickson and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2000-09-12 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary group of scholars applies the reinterpretive concept of "visual culture" to the English Renaissance. Bringing attention to the visual issues that have appeared persistently, though often marginally, in the newer criticisms of the last decade, the authors write in a diversity of voices on a range of subjects. Common among them, however, is a concern with the visual technologies that underlie the representation of the body, of race, of nation, and of empire. Several essays focus on the construction and representation of the human body—including an examination of anatomy as procedure and visual concept, and a look at early cartographic practice to reveal the correspondences between maps and the female body. In one essay, early Tudor portraits are studied to develop theoretical analogies and historical links between verbal and visual portrayal. In another, connections in Tudor-Stuart drama are drawn between the female body and the textiles made by women. A second group of essays considers issues of colonization, empire, and race. They approach a variety of visual materials, including sixteenth-century representations of the New World that helped formulate a consciousness of subjugation; the Drake Jewel and the myth of the Black Emperor as indices of Elizabethan colonial ideology; and depictions of the Queen of Sheba among other black women "present" in early modern painting. One chapter considers the politics of collecting. The aesthetic and imperial agendas of a Van Dyck portrait are uncovered in another essay, while elsewhere, that same portrait is linked to issues of whiteness and blackness as they are concentrated within the ceremonies and trappings of the Order of the Garter. All of the essays in Early Modern Visual Culture explore the social context in which paintings, statues, textiles, maps, and other artifacts are produced and consumed. They also explore how those artifacts—and the acts of creating, collecting, and admiring them—are themselves mechanisms for fashioning the body and identity, situating the self within a social order, defining the otherness of race, ethnicity, and gender, and establishing relationships of power over others based on exploration, surveillance, and insight.

Book Synopsis A Jungian Study of Shakespeare by : M. Fike
Download or read book A Jungian Study of Shakespeare written by M. Fike and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-02-02 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing the analytical psychology of Carl Jung, Matthew A. Fike provides a fresh understanding of individuation in Shakespeare. This study of "the visionary mode" - Jung s term for literature that comes through the artist from the collective unconscious - combines a strong grounding in Jungian terminology and theory with myth criticism, biblical literary criticism, and postcolonial theory. Fike draws extensively on the rich discussions in the Collected Works of C. G. Jung to illuminate selected plays such as A Midsummer Night s Dream, The Merchant of Venice, The Henriad, Othello, and Hamlet in new and surprising ways. Fike s clear and thorough approach to Shakespeare offers exciting, original scholarship that will appeal to students and scholars alike.
