Zusammenfassung: | This book discusses the tensions in major Renaissance literary texts between the cult of monarchy and its subversions by Christianity. It corrects some modern scholars' assumptions of a prevailing divine-right theory of monarchy. A recurring theme from the English mystery plays to Milton proposes an inherent tendency of monarchy toward idolatry. The chapter on Erasmus makes a case for a strong tradition of political libertarianism that became a notable emphasis in English humanism. Then follow three essays on Spenser (especially Faerie Queene V and View), Shakespeare (especially the political plays of the late 1590s), and Milton (political writings, Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained.). Ozment and others have shown that the Reformation fostered the desacralizing of secular life, an impulse that Schneidau has seen as central to the Hebrew-Christian tradition Texts like the infamous Vindiciae contra Tyrannos support this interpretation as regards monarchy, rather than the received views of Kantorowicz, which are perhaps more relevant to the Continent. The king-figure in the English mystery plays is often the butt of satire, in contrast to his more dignified counterpart in some Continental drama. The king-figure enters the morality-play tradition as the "pride of life," a transition observed in the hybrid play Mary Magdalene. Erasmus's writings develop from a unified political and religious sensibility in accord with what Mesnard calls his evangelisme politique. For Erasmus, order is not an end in itself but serves the ends of peace, which in turn allow the human soul the optimum liberty to choose or reject the virtuous life. Thomas More's earlier agreement with, and later departure from, Erasmus's views on political authority are related to the Henrician political crisis Spenser's anti-absolutism and Erasmus-like concept of peace, order, and liberty are disclosed in explications of the Isis Temple, Souldan, Gerioneo, and Grantorto episodes of Faerie Queene V. These and other writings show the poet's belief in the need for aristocracy to act in the service of truth. Shakespeare's "second tetralogy" moves toward Henry V's renouncing "idol ceremony," in contrast to Julius Caesar, which presents a model of disordered polity. Civil idolatry (Milton's phrase) in that play and in Milton's long poems leads to tyranny and ritualism, accompanied by fear and awe. This logic is woven into the texture of hell in Paradise Lost. Paradise Regained advances the position through its redefinition of conquest and fatherhood in response to the "conquest theory" and patriarchalism with which monarchists justified their cause |

spelling | Hardin, Richard F. Verfasser aut Civil idolatry desacralizing and monarchy in Spenser, Shakespeare, and Milton Richard F. Hardin Newark Univ. of Delaware Press u.a. 1992 267 S. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier This book discusses the tensions in major Renaissance literary texts between the cult of monarchy and its subversions by Christianity. It corrects some modern scholars' assumptions of a prevailing divine-right theory of monarchy. A recurring theme from the English mystery plays to Milton proposes an inherent tendency of monarchy toward idolatry. The chapter on Erasmus makes a case for a strong tradition of political libertarianism that became a notable emphasis in English humanism. Then follow three essays on Spenser (especially Faerie Queene V and View), Shakespeare (especially the political plays of the late 1590s), and Milton (political writings, Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained.). Ozment and others have shown that the Reformation fostered the desacralizing of secular life, an impulse that Schneidau has seen as central to the Hebrew-Christian tradition Texts like the infamous Vindiciae contra Tyrannos support this interpretation as regards monarchy, rather than the received views of Kantorowicz, which are perhaps more relevant to the Continent. The king-figure in the English mystery plays is often the butt of satire, in contrast to his more dignified counterpart in some Continental drama. The king-figure enters the morality-play tradition as the "pride of life," a transition observed in the hybrid play Mary Magdalene. Erasmus's writings develop from a unified political and religious sensibility in accord with what Mesnard calls his evangelisme politique. For Erasmus, order is not an end in itself but serves the ends of peace, which in turn allow the human soul the optimum liberty to choose or reject the virtuous life. Thomas More's earlier agreement with, and later departure from, Erasmus's views on political authority are related to the Henrician political crisis Spenser's anti-absolutism and Erasmus-like concept of peace, order, and liberty are disclosed in explications of the Isis Temple, Souldan, Gerioneo, and Grantorto episodes of Faerie Queene V. These and other writings show the poet's belief in the need for aristocracy to act in the service of truth. Shakespeare's "second tetralogy" moves toward Henry V's renouncing "idol ceremony," in contrast to Julius Caesar, which presents a model of disordered polity. Civil idolatry (Milton's phrase) in that play and in Milton's long poems leads to tyranny and ritualism, accompanied by fear and awe. This logic is woven into the texture of hell in Paradise Lost. Paradise Regained advances the position through its redefinition of conquest and fatherhood in response to the "conquest theory" and patriarchalism with which monarchists justified their cause Milton, John <1608-1674> - Pensée politique et sociale Milton, John <1608-1674> - Pensée politique et sociale ram Shakespeare, William <1564-1616> - Pensée politique et sociale Shakespeare, William <1564-1616> - Pensée politique et sociale ram Spenser, Edmund <1552?-1599> - Pensée politique et sociale Spenser, Edmund <1552?-1599> - Pensée politique et sociale ram Milton, John <1608-1674> Political and social views Shakespeare, William <1564-1616> Political and social views Spenser, Edmund <1552?-1599> Political and social views Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (DE-588)118613723 gnd rswk-swf Milton, John 1608-1674 (DE-588)118582607 gnd rswk-swf Spenser, Edmund 1552-1599 (DE-588)118616129 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1600-1700 Geschichte 1500-1600 Geschichte 1500-1700 gnd rswk-swf Littérature anglaise - 16e siècle - Histoire et critique Littérature anglaise - 16e siècle - Histoire et critique ram Littérature anglaise - 17e siècle - Histoire et critique Littérature anglaise - 17e siècle - Histoire et critique ram Monarchie - Dans la littérature ram Monarchie dans la littérature Politique et littérature - Grande-Bretagne - Histoire - 16e siècle Politique et littérature - Grande-Bretagne - Histoire - 17e siècle Politique et littérature - Grande-Bretagne - Histoire ram Religion - Dans la littérature ram Religion dans la littérature Rois et souverains - Dans la littérature ram Rois et souverains dans la littérature Église et État - Dans la littérature ram Église et État dans la littérature Geschichte Church and state in literature English literature Early modern, 1500-1700 History and criticism Kings and rulers in literature Monarchy in literature Politics and literature Great Britain History 16th century Politics and literature Great Britain History 17th century Religion in literature Monarchie (DE-588)4040034-7 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Christentum (DE-588)4010074-1 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf König (DE-588)4031516-2 gnd rswk-swf Religion (DE-588)4049396-9 gnd rswk-swf Ideologie (DE-588)4026486-5 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (DE-588)118613723 p König (DE-588)4031516-2 s Ideologie (DE-588)4026486-5 s DE-604 Spenser, Edmund 1552-1599 (DE-588)118616129 p Milton, John 1608-1674 (DE-588)118582607 p Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Geschichte 1500-1700 z Monarchie (DE-588)4040034-7 s Religion (DE-588)4049396-9 s Christentum (DE-588)4010074-1 s 1\p DE-604 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
