Renaissance Configurations is a ground-breaking collection of essays on the structures and strategies of Early Modern culture—as embodied in issues of gender, sexuality and politics—by a group of critics from the new generation of specialists.
The essays focus on the relations of public and private, of verbal and spatial, of textual and material, reading and re-reading texts, both canonical and non-canonical, with a textual and historical rigor often considered lacking in work with theoretical premises. The collection as a whole offers a clear sense of the direction to be taken by Early Modern studies over the next decade.
