Body Narratives by S Scholz

Body Narratives deals with the configurations in the literature and culture of sixteenth-century England. It investigates the relationship between disciplinary discourses of the human body and political body imagery in the texts of courtly writers like Spenser, Sidney, Ralegh and others, and traces its interdependence in their narratives of national identity, imperial expansion and gender difference.

"This is a useful book in its ability to bring recent scholarship, theory, and familiar texts together..." - Elizabeth D. Harvey, Renaissance Quarterly
