Power In Verse: Metaphor And Metonymy In The Renaissance Lyric
by Jane Hedley (Author),
Penn State University Press (Publisher)
Product Specifications
Book Description
English lyric poetry from Wyatt to Donne falls into three consecutive stylistic
phases. Tottel's Miscellany presided over the first, making the lyrics of Wyatt
and Surrey available for imitation by mid-century poets like Barnabe Googe,
George Turberville, and George Gascoigne. The Shepheardes Calender and Sidney's
Defense of Poesy ushered in the second, the Elizabethan or "Golden" phase of the
1580s and 1590s. In the third phase Donne and Jonson, reacting against the
stylistic orientation of the Elizabethan poets, reconceived the status of
"poesy" and resituated the lyric for a post-Elizabethan audience.
Chapter 7 is shared between Donne and Jonson, post-Elizabethan writers who used
metonymy to subvert the metaphoric
