{"product_id":"petrarchan-love-and-the-english-renaissance-9780192858368","title":"Petrarchan Love and the English Renaissance","description":"This book surveys English love poetry, primarily, though not exclusively, sonnets and sonnet sequences that show the influence of Petrarch, from the early sixteenth century to the publication of Mary Wroth's \u003cem\u003ePamphilia\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eto Amphilanthus\u003c\/em\u003e in 1621. It incorporates a range of new scholarship and thinking into narrative history, with a focus on particular poets including Thomas Wyatt, George Gascoigne, Philip Sidney, Fulke Greville, Samuel Daniel, Wroth, Walter Ralegh, and Shakespeare, as well as particularly notable poems such as \"They flee from me\", \"Gascoigne's Woodmanship\", and \"The Ocean's Love to Cynthia\". \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe self-absorption of Petrarchan lyricism is brought into a more populous environment and is linked to the ambitious and intense world of the English court, within which many of these poets lived and worked. During the reign of Queen Elizabeth, the Petrarchan theme of love for a powerful but distant woman was literalized in the politics of the realm, in ways that the queen herself recognized and exploited. A final chapter offers a new model for the implied narrative of Shakespeare's sonnets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gordon Braden\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.49h x 6.47w x 0.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192858368","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42706520506505,"sku":"9780192858368","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_8d3d6244-2aed-44af-bb7e-6b98fde0d585.jpg?v=1719459048","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/petrarchan-love-and-the-english-renaissance-9780192858368","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
