Andrea, Bernadette. Islamic Communities. Edited by Andrew Hiscock and Helen Wilcox. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199672806.013.30.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines four ‘time-spaces’ to situate the lives of individuals from the Islamic world in early modern England and their impact on its literary imagination: 1) the presence of Tartars, Chaldeans, and scattered ‘Others’ from the Islamic world in England from the 1550s to the 1570s; 2) the letters Queen Elizabeth I issued to various Muslim sovereigns from the 1580s to the 1590s; 3) Moroccan and Persian embassies at the English court through the 1680s; and 4) Muslim converts and captives in England through the 1690s. This history of the marginal presence of individuals from the Islamic world in England prior to the eighteenth century and their disproportionate resonance in the literature of the era thus becomes one of the facilitating conditions for the emerging anglocentric discourse of empire on a global scale.

Abstract:
This chapter concerns the work of writers who proclaim their commitment to a readership of commoners: craftspeople, tradesfolk, domestic servants, and others below the rank of the gentry. In doing so, the chapter reveals the voracious appetite of the marketplace of print for copy. It draws attention to the competing interests of printers and considers the question of how to make a living by writing under these circumstances. Writers experimented with different methods of turning the copy they produced into a steady income, but many failed. However, the attempt led to the extraordinary variety of prose pamphlets (short, inexpensive books) printed in the 1580s and 1590s.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores the story of Thomas Nashe's ‘satire’. In the 1580s and 1590s, ‘satire’ was a term conferred upon his works by admirers who sought to define — and so limit — the nature of the prose he wrote. This chapter explores what satire means to Nashe's friends and enemies, particularly in combination with ‘honey’ or ‘sweetness’. It also considers why Nashe himself avoided the word. To explore the extent to which Nashe was and was not a writer of satires, as well as where his ‘sweetness’ resides, this chapter also attempts to examine what early modern writers took satire to mean, and then to examine who was thought to be writing it.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores the mostly overlooked history of romance on the early modern stage. Analysing the geographies of two little-known plays, Clyomon and Clamydes (1580s?) and Guy of Warwick (early 1590s?), it argues that, in its imaginative openness and its flexible staging of space, the early modern theatre was the ideal environment in which to stage romance’s extravagant spatial and ethnographical imaginings. Further, the chapter demonstrates how a theatrical tradition of clowning enabled these late-Elizabethan dramas to contest the values of the very romance-worlds they had established. It closes with a fresh reading of Francis Beaumont’s parody of romance, The Knight of the Burning Pestle, arguing that the play satirizes dramatic romance’s spatial grammar as well as its narrative strategies.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines the relationship between theater and church in the early modern London parish of St. Anne, Blackfriars. From the 1580s, the parish of St Anne gained notoriety for its Puritan ministers and residents. For a brief period in the 1590s, these godly forces prevented Burbage, Shakespeare, and their fellows from opening a new indoor theater in part of the old Dominican monastery. But eventually the theatre opened and a culture of performing and playgoing became a well-established part of the local life. By looking closely at the individuals involved and at the social and economic forces at play in the Blackfriars, this chapter argues that coexistence, not conflict, characterized relations between the Godly and their neighborhood playhouse in this corner of the City.

Abstract:
Chapter 4 focuses on the contracts imposed on rulers in elective monarchies, which made their position on the throne conditional. The Polish-Lithuanian conditions, known as the Henrician articles (or the pacta conventa) were significantly more complex than those used in Transylvania in the 1570s and 1580s; only in the seventeenth century did the latter become similarly elaborate. Moreover, the Transylvanian conditions were mostly negative promises (i.e. to abstain from abusing power or infringing the liberties of citizens), whereas the Polish-Lithuanian ones included positive ones as well (to bring financial, strategic, or military aid, and to resolve certain domestic issues). The chapter analyses the extent to which Stephen Báthory observed his electoral contract during his Transylvanian and Polish-Lithuanian reigns, particularly the interdiction of hereditary succession, religious peace, and the right of disobedience.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter engages with issues relating to the place of chivalry within the new forms of gentility which were emerging in late Tudor and early Stuart England. It traces a process of ‘revichalrization’ back to the 1570s and 1580s, as contemporary commentators sought to reconnect the military profession with the virtues of courage, honesty, and service to one’s country. This found expression in the revival of the tilt and the heavily romanticized approach to battle of soldiers such as Sir Philip Sidney and Lord Herbert of Cherbury. This style of soldiering was largely confined to the upper levels of the gentry and nobility. But the norms and values associated with it exercised a powerful influence on the gentry more widely, encouraging the duelling, equestrianism and martial display, which continued to be feature prominently in the mix of virtues which constituted the ideal gentleman.

Saussy, Haun. Matteo Ricci the Daoist. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198812531.003.0004.

Full text
Abstract:
When the Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci arrived in China in the 1580s, he had to invent an identity for himself: he and his doctrine were unknowns. That would soon change as Ricci became a Ming-dynasty celebrity through his writings in Chinese and personal contacts. From an examination of contemporary writings about Ricci in Chinese, a constellation of references emerges that depict him, through repeated references to the Zhuangzi and associated texts, as a kind of Daoist sage, a hermit in the midst of the secular world, perhaps a wonder-worker or envoy from a transcendental realm. Ricci’s own role in creating this legend is unclear, but his admirers and interlocutors developed and extended the reference, as a means of giving early-modern Christian theology a purchase on the Chinese political and intellectual situation of the time.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter begins by presenting translation as an aspect of the Erasmian legacy in England, and it argues that translation helps to heal the division discussed in Chapter 3 by enabling Protestantism and humanism to work together. Translation was part of a Protestant programme of nation-building and spreading the word for the common good, but it was also the means through which the literature of antiquity and of modern Europe was communicated to the public at large. Erasmus’ Paraphrases, Grimald's Cicero, and Hoby's Courtier are discussed in these two contexts. Translation points towards the Renaissance, as an insular purism based on Protestant fears of contamination and adulteration was superseded by a hospitality towards the foreign. The chapter ends by arguing that by the 1580s it is Protestant Bible translation that it is accused by Catholics of being literary.

Abstract:
This chapter contrasts the perspective of Antoine de Chandieu’s contemporaries regarding his importance with the perspective of scholarship since that time. Whereas at Theodore Beza’s death, poets represented Chandieu with silver, John Calvin with gold, and Beza with bronze, since then Chandieu has been forgotten. Yet Chandieu wrote six “theological and scholastic” treatises in the 1580s that were highly influential in Reformed theology and were responded to by opponents repeatedly. His Opera Theologica went through five editions after his death. He was also highly instrumental in the formation of the French Reformed Churches as a federation with a unique church order, one later copied by many other Reformed churches. Besides, as a French baron, he played a noteworthy role in the politics of France. The argument, plan, and outline of the book are found at the close of this chapter.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores sanctuary claims made in the properties of one particular religious order, the Knights of St John of Jerusalem (the Knights Hospitaller). The order had a special relationship with the English system of criminal prosecution (providing burial to hanged felons), exemplifying an amalgam of mercy, justice, and charity that had much in common with the ideology of sanctuary. Over the period between 1400 until the 1530s, the Hosptiallers made increasingly ambitious but impracticable arguments for sanctuary, claiming it in any of their real properties. Although the Hospitallers were forced largely to abandon this strategy by the 1520s, this chapter shows why this was not characteristic of other institutions’ sanctuary privileges, which were accepted by courts and kings into the 1530s.

Abstract:
Roanoke. Manteo. Wanchese. Chicamacomico. These place names along today’s Outer Banks are a testament to the Indigenous communities that thrived for generations along the Carolina coast. Though most sources for understanding these communities were written by European settlers who began to arrive in the late sixteenth century, those sources nevertheless offer a fascinating record of the region’s Algonquian-speaking people. Here, drawing on decades of experience researching the ethnohistory of the coastal mid-Atlantic, Helen Rountree reconstructs the Indigenous world the Roanoke colonists encountered in the 1580s. Blending authoritative research with accessible narrative, Rountree reveals in rich detail the social, political, and religious lives of Native Americans before European colonization. Then narrating the story of the famed Lost Colony from the Indigenous vantage point, Rountree reconstructs what it may have been like for both sides as stranded English settlers sought to merge with existing local communities. Finally, drawing on the work of other scholars, Rountree brings the story of the Native people forward as far as possible toward the present. Featuring maps and original illustrations, Rountree offers a much needed introduction to the history and culture of the region’s Native American people before, during, and after the founding of the Roanoke colony.

Full text
Abstract:
This book puts William Shakespeare’s Stratford upbringing into significant historical context for the first time and provides new ways of thinking about Warwickshire and Elizabethan England. It uses new archival discoveries about three families: the Shakespeares, the brothers Ambrose and Robert Dudley, earls of Warwick and Leicester, and the Arden family headed by Edward Arden. It shows that as he grew up William Shakespeare was exposed to the Dudleys’ political, legal, historical, and genealogical claims for their authority in Warwickshire and Stratford, an assault on the county’s collective memory resisted by the Ardens and other gentry. As her proxies, the Dudleys established Elizabeth I’s Protestant regime in the west Midlands, culminating in Edward Arden’s destruction on false treason charges in 1583. By then the Shakespeares also had direct experience of the London government’s power in the localities. From 1569 Exchequer informers, backed by influential politicians at Court, accused William’s father John of illegal wool-dealing and usury. Contrary to previous claims that he had escaped these charges by 1572, new sources show how the Exchequer’s continuing demands undermined John’s credit rating by 1577, forcing his withdrawal from Stratford politics, and curtailing his business career in the early 1580s. In the fallout from Arden’s destruction the Elizabethan regime also punished the Shakespeares’ friends and neighbours, the Quineys for their alleged financial links to the traitorous Ardens, despite local knowledge to the contrary, confirming Shakespeare’s sceptical understanding of the realities of power that we find in his later plays.

Abstract:
The first sustained encounters between Europeans and native peoples of America in the fifteenth century were temporally episodic and geographically uneven. The prevailing winds and currents across the Atlantic nonetheless pushed European shipping repeatedly towards northern South America and the Caribbean region, as in the first voyage of Christopher Columbus. From this initial zone of contact European expeditions ranged to the south and west, enumerating rivers and assessing opportunities for trade and plunder. Within a decade of Columbus' first landfall under the flag of Spain, Portuguese expeditions had reported on the coastal regions of Brazil, followed in the 1530s and 1540s by reports from expeditions into the river basins of the Amazon and Orinoco. The organisation of production within native economies was largely domestically based and kinship relations were the basis for the organisation of agriculture and hunting.

Full text
Abstract:
The Polish monarchy’s diplomacy in the 1520s and 1530s has long struck historians as peculiar—both pro- and anti-Reformation simultaneously. King Sigismund actively promoted Lutheran princes such as Duke Albrecht of Prussia or Wilhelm of Brandenburg-Ansbach in their activities in Livonia, Scandinavia, and the Holy Roman Empire, and married his oldest daughter to a leading Lutheran German prince. At the same time, a key facet of Polish diplomacy was the cultivation in speeches, treatises, and woodcuts of King Sigismund’s international reputation as a most pious prince. This chapter argues that, rather than diagnosing sixteenth-century diplomacy as pure realpolitik, we should pay attention to cultural factors in play, such as sacred bonds of kinship, the power of princely reputation, and ecclesiological beliefs. In these years, the Polish Crown conducted a pre-confessional diplomacy, in the conviction that Christendom was still one, perceiving relatively limited differences between Catholics and Lutherans.

Abstract:
This discussion asks what King Sigismund of Poland and his subjects understood catholicism to be in the 1520s and 1530s, through language analysis of a diverse and large corpus of sources. It finds that (in contrast to ‘luteranismus’) there was no name for catholicism per se. The church was defined primarily with reference to the past: as the church of one’s ancestors, of the Fathers, of many past centuries. Its chief characteristic was its (alleged) historic unity, resting on a carefully preserved consensus down the ages. Under the pressure of events, however, we find the language used by catholics in Poland-Prussia shifting, from a pre-confessional universal world view towards proto-confessional positions: from ‘good and bad Christians’ to ‘Catholic’ versus ‘Lutheran’. Reformation supporters, meanwhile, described this church very differently—as papal-led, built on distinctive doctrinal positions, and located in a dead, rather than a living, past.

Abstract:
This chapter asks how distinctive the experience of Henry’s England was in a Europe scarred by war. Many aspects of Henry’s wars were shared with his neighbours: the role of war in news culture, the military leadership of the nobility, the withdrawal of respectable townsfolk from campaigning, the slow spread of prescribed weapons, the manliness of fighting, the prevalence of mutiny and disease, the concern for national military reputation. In other ways England was unusual. While its standing forces were small, its mobilization rates were high. Its territory did not suffer the devastation of many of its neighbours and its taxes were irregular, but they bit hard. Its disengagement from the Italian Wars left it to modernize rapidly between the 1540s and 1560s and the nature of its military-fiscal systems meant that its subjects felt the fluctuations of war and peace more sharply than many other Europeans.

Abstract:
While there were clear strategic aims in the way that marriages were made in the Howard dynasty during this period, the family was only unusual in that it operated at the very top of the aristocratic hierarchy and was therefore able to use marital alliances to successfully recover and bolster both status and finances. Where they were different, however, was in the experience of some of these women within marriage. By and large, the marriages made by and for members of the family, including women, seem to have been as successful as others of their class. However, three women close to the core of the dynasty experienced severe marital problems, even ‘failed’ marriages, almost simultaneously during the 1520s and 1530s. The records generated by these episodes tell us about the way in which the family operated as a whole, and the agency of women in this context, and this chapter therefore reconstructs these disputes for this purpose.

Abstract:
2.1 and 1.7 comprise the core of the two-volume study. Having followed Montaigne and the Essais to Rome in 1580–1 in 1.7, we now follow them to Paris in 1588. It emerges that Montaigne, in his persona as the author of the Essais, did not properly ‘arrive’ in Paris, as far as the French parliamentary elite were concerned, until after the posthumous publication of Paris 1595. Even then, he was not accorded the position of a patron-author, which was held only by great lawmen and scholars such as L’Hospital. He was in the shadow of the friend whose works he had edited and addressed to parlementaires in the early 1570s: La Boétie. He was welcomed in terms that retrospectively inserted the author and his book into a politique context. The major figures discussed include de Thou (whose brush with Roman censorship is contrasted with Montaigne’s), Sainte-Marthe, Pasquier, L’Estoile.

Abstract:
In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, an acute religious crisis occurred in England due to the troublesome specter of heresies proliferating at the time. During the 1520s and 1530s, Thomas More, Lord Chancellor, played a major role in the escalating polemical warfare against Lutheran and evangelical heresy. And in the 1640s and 1650s, the fragmentation of Protestantism provoked powerful new fears of unbridled heresies and the rise of anti-heretical writings. This article examines the cultural fears sparked by the hysterical religious imagination and how they generated enormous anxieties, savagery, and bitter religious contention and polarization. It also looks at the anti-heresy literature of the English Civil War and Interregnum in the context of new legislation enacted by Parliament to control the proliferation of religious error. In addition, it considers the remarkable continuities between the late Middle Ages and early modern period with regard to heresy, treason, fears, and the feverish religious imagination, along with what was distinctive about the imaginings of heretics and heresies during those unstable decades.
