Klappentext zu „Tragedies from the Seams of Modernity “
This book is an invitation to embed Elizabethan and Jacobean Tragedy in its historical context: a time of change. Dwelling on Raymond William's concept of culture as social process, the author reads a selected number of tragedies as being influenced by the conflicting epistemologies of the fading Middle Ages and a dawning modernity. The final catastrophe in Doctor Faustus , The Spanish Tragedy , King Lear , Sejanus his Fall and The Duchess of Malfi is located in the melting pot of rivalling discourses.
