They chart continuities between the two periods and examine the recuperation of ideas and texts from the earlier period in the 1790s and beyond. Contributors utilize a variety of approaches and concepts: from gender studies, the cultural history of food and diet and the history of political discourse, to explorations of the theatre, philosophy and metaphysics. This volume argues that the radical agendas of the mid-seventeenth century, intended to change society fundamentally, did not disappear throughout the long eighteenth century only to be resuscitated at its close. Rather, through close textual analysis, these essays indicate a more continuous transmission.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 17mmItem Weight: 440gContributor: Timothy Morton (Edited by), Nigel Smith (Edited by)Author: Timothy MortonGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityTopic: Literary CriticismRelease Year: 2009 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
