Pollard, Tanya. Parodying Shakespeare’s Euripides in Bartholomew Fair. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198793113.003.0007.

Full text

Abstract:

Chapter 6, “Parodying Shakespeare’s Euripides in Bartholomew Fair,” argues that Shakespeare’s fascination with Greek tragedy’s female icons led his contemporaries to identify him with the dramatic tradition they represented. In particular, Ben Jonson adopts an Aristophanic strategy to parody Shakespeare’s versions of Euripidean heroines in Bartholomew Fair. The play simultaneously imitates, mocks, and pays homage to Shakespeare’s tragicomic restorations, through parodic versions of the Greek female figures who shape their miraculous reversals. Allusions to Ceres, Furies, and Hero and Leander highlight Greek tragic patterns including suffering mothers and daughters, reunions with veiled wives returning from a mock-underworld, and a suffering virgin escaping the sacrifice of an unwanted marriage. Tracing these Euripidean underpinnings illuminates Jonson’s responses not only to Shakespeare, but also to Greek plays. In his tongue-in-cheek recreations of Shakespeare’s Euripidean plots, Jonson recreates their pleasurable redemptions while maintaining his wry skepticism toward their miraculous resolutions.

Abstract:

Women of the Virgin Islands: From the Field to the Legislaturerecognizes and restores women to their central role in the history of the Virgin Islands by examining their lives from the earliest days of the colony's settlement. Constrained by their sex, race, and colonized status, women, nevertheless, led lives of ordinary heroism, which ensured the territory's economic, social, and cultural survival. In this comprehensive history of women in one of the world's last British colonies, O'Neal shows how women continue to define and redefine themselves and their roles in both their public and private lives, even as the colony itself undergoes its own transformation. As the twenty-first century begins, this book takes a look back at the role colonialism played in the twentieth century in furthering male political leadership and patriarchal norms. While party politics might have had the potential to advance women's political careers, O'Neal concludes they have largely failed to do so despite the advances women have made. Beginning in the late 1600s, when the islands were first colonized by the British, O'Neal examines the growth of slavery and shows how women exercised leadership roles in their community while preserving some of the traditions of their native Africa. She moves on to discuss the shaping of women's roles after the abolition of slavery and the struggles women faced as a result. Moving into the twentieth century, the book takes a look at women in the economy, society, government, education, and even in the family, and explores how roles have grown and changed even as the islands themselves continue to be transformed. O'Neal shows that while patriarchal attitudes were strengthened, women still found their way into the public arena, albeit with difficulty, influencing all areas of social policy. This book represents a truly original and enlightening addition to the literature on the Virgin Islands and Caribbean history.

Davidson, Michael. Invalid Modernism. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198832812.001.0001.

Full text

Abstract:

Invalid Modernism contributes to an intersectional moment in disability studies by looking at aesthetics through non-conforming bodies and minds. It also offers an intersectional understanding of modernism by studying the representation of physical and cognitive difference during a period marked by progressive reforms in health, labor, and welfare. Readings of texts by Henry James, Samuel Beckett, Virginia Woolf, William Carlos Williams, James Joyce, Djuna Barnes, Oscar Wilde, F. T. Marinetti, Jean Toomer, an opera by Alexander Zemlinsky, and paintings and constructions of Dadaists and Surrealists are set against historical developments in sexology, medical discourse, and eugenics and anthropometry. Modernist works are well known for challenging formal features of narration and representation, but this challenge has often been enabled by shell-shocked veterans, tubercular heroines, blind soothsayers, invalid aesthetes, and neurasthenic women. Such figures complicate an aesthetics of autonomy by which modernism is often understood. Since its evolution in the eighteenth century modern aesthetics has been seen in terms of judgments based on detached appreciation. What begins as a private sensory response to an object or natural formation results in a disinterested judgment about the value of that response. By looking at modernist aesthetics through a disability optic, Invalid Modernism attempts to restore the missing body to aesthetic discourse through figures marked by medical discourse of the period as “invalid” subjects.

Abad Del Vecchio, Julene. The Dark Side of Statius' Achilleid. Oxford University PressOxford, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198895206.001.0001.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract The Dark Side of Statius’ Achilleid explores systematically and for the first time the darker aspects of Statius’ Achilleid, bringing to light the poem’s tragic and epic dimensions. By seeking to position centre-stage these darker elements, the book offers several new readings of the Achilleid in relation to its literary inheritance, its gender dynamics, and its generic tensions. Beneath the surface of a story that ostensibly deals with a lighter subject matter, the cross-dressing of a young Achilles on Scyros, the volume examines in depth the poem’s relationship to its epic and tragic precursors, and explores more serious themes: challenges to traditional epic narratives, Achilles’ complex familial relationships, his deviant and transgressive heroism, the tragic character of Thetis, and frequent glimpses of the horrors that a cataclysmic Trojan War, looming around the corner, will beget. By looking into Statius’ wide-ranging dialogue with his literary predecessors, such as Homer, Sophocles, Virgil, Ovid, Lucan, and Seneca, as well as Statius’ previous epic magnum opus, the Thebaid, the book investigates the multidimensional characterizations of Achilles and other of the poem’s key characters such as Ulysses, Calchas, and Thetis. Far from simply representing a shameful but essentially humorous cross-dressing episode in Achilles’ life destined to be forgotten, the Achilleid will be seen to challenge the very fabric of epic by probing the validity and authority of its literary tradition, as well as putting on view once again its highly innovative and experimental nature.

Abstract:

For more than a century and a half, from 1607 to 1763, Britain and France struggled to master the eastern half of North America. They fought five blood-soaked wars and continuously provoked various Indian tribes to raise arms against each other's subjects for the mastery of the land. The last French and Indian War, from 1754 to 1760, would dwarf all previous conflicts in the number of troops, expense, geographical expanse, and total casualties. Placing the French and Indian War in a broad historical context, this study examines the struggle for North America during the two preceding centuries and includes not only the conflict between France and Britain, but also the parts played by various Indian tribes and the other European powers. The last French and Indian War makes for colorful reading with its array of inept and daring commanders, epic heroism among the troops, far-flung battles and sieges, and creaking fleets of warships. Ironically, America's most famous founder, George Washington, helped to spark the war, first by trudging through the wilderness in the dead of winter with a message from Virginia Governor Dinwiddie to the French to abandon their forts in the upper Ohio River valley, then a half year later by ordering the war's first shots when his troops ambushed Captain Jumonville, and finally when he ignominiously surrendered his force at Fort Necessity and unwittingly signed a surrender document in French naming himself Jumonville's assassin. Topical chapters discuss the economic, political, social, and military attributes of the participants, and narrative chapters examine the campaigns of the war's first two years.
