Andrew Marvell
Author: Matthew C. Augustine

ISBN: 9783030592882
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
'Matthew C. Augustine has managed to achieve, if not the impossible, then something vanishingly rare in the genre of literary biography. In tracing the frequently intricate links between Marvell's writings and their contexts, he engages (and often challenges) readers familiar with the terrain while providing enough guidance to newcomers to make them feel welcome. Most valuable are the analyses of poems that have received less critical attention than the acknowledged masterpieces, but which are deeply suggestive about the life and character of the man who produced them.' - Joanna Picciotto, Associate Professor, University of California, Berkeley, USA, author of Labors of Innocence in Early Modern England (2010). This book provides an accessible account of the poet and politician Andrew Marvell's life (1621-1678) and of the great events which found reflection in his work and in which he and his writings eventually played a part. At the same time, considerable space is afforded to reflecting deeply on the modes and meanings of Marvell's art, redressing the balance of recent biography and criticism which has tended to dwell on the public and political aspects of this literary life at the expense of lyric invention and lyric possibility. Moving beyond the familiar terms of imitation and influence, the book aims at reconstructing an embodied history of reading and writing, acts undertaken within a series of complex physical and social environments, from the Hull Charterhouse to the coffee houses and print shops of Restoration London. Care has been taken to cover the whole of Marvell's career, in verse and prose, even as the book places the lyric achievement at the centre of its vision.

Mississippi Praying
Author: Carolyn Renée Dupont
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 0814708412
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Mississippi Praying examines the faith communities at ground-zero of the racial revolution that rocked America. This religious history of white Mississippians in the civil rights era shows how Mississippians’ intense religious commitments played critical, rather than incidental, roles in their response to the movement for black equality. During the civil rights movement and since, it has perplexed many Americans that unabashedly Christian Mississippi could also unapologetically oppress its black population. Yet, as Carolyn Renée Dupont richly details, white southerners’ evangelical religion gave them no conceptual tools for understanding segregation as a moral evil, and many believed that God had ordained the racial hierarchy. Challenging previous scholarship that depicts southern religious support for segregation as weak, Dupont shows how people of faith in Mississippi rejected the religious argument for black equality and actively supported the effort to thwart the civil rights movement. At the same time, faith motivated a small number of white Mississippians to challenge the methods and tactics of do-or-die segregationists. Racial turmoil profoundly destabilized Mississippi’s religious communities and turned them into battlegrounds over the issue of black equality. Though Mississippi’s evangelicals lost the battle to preserve segregation, they won important struggles to preserve the theology that had sustained the racial hierarchy. Ultimately, this history sheds light on the eventual rise of the religious right by elaborating the connections between the pre- and post-civil rights South. Carolyn Renée Dupont is Assistant Professor of History at Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond, KY.
