Through deeply historicising early modern literature and looking at its political and social contexts, Peter C. Herman explores how early modern authors challenged the biases and prejudices of their age. By examining the works of Thomas More, William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, John Fletcher, and Philip Massinger amongst others, Herman reveals that for every "-ism" in early modern English culture there was an "anti-ism" pushing back against it. The book investigates "others" in early modern literature through indigenous communities, women, religion, people of colour, and class. This innovative book shows that the early modern period was as complicated and as contradictory as the world today. It will offer valuable insight for anyone studying early modern literature and culture, as well as social justice and intersectionality"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Thomas More's Utopia and the "New World" -- "I am no child, no babe" : the Shrew Plays -- "That's more than we know" : the crisis of the 1590s in Deloney, Dekker, and Shakespeare -- The circulation of atheism in early modern England : Tamburlaine, Selimus, and King Lear -- The religious "other" in early modern England : The Jew of Malta, The Merchant of Venice, and The Renegado -- Titus Andronicus, Othello, and London's Africans. 648 7 $a 1500-1700 $2 fast 650 0 $a English literature $y Early modern, 1500-1700 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Other (Philosophy) in literature. 650 0 $a Discrimination in literature. 650 7 $a Discrimination in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895104 650 7 $a English literature $x Early modern $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710960 650 7 $a Other (Philosophy) in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904148 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Critiques litteÌraires. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001939 776 08 $i Online version: $a Herman, Peter C., 1958- $t Early modern others $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2023 $z 9781003301295 $w (DLC) 2023018446 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240717011738.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=012F9E04440211EF98CC15ED37ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
