The eleven essays approach tropes and figures from multiple perspectives: genre, gender, translation, classical reception and history. 520 8 This volume proposes new insights into the uses of classical mythology by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, focusing on interweaving processes in early modern appropriations of myth. Its 11 essays show how early modern writing intertwines diverse myths and plays with variant versions of individual myths that derive from multiple classical sources, as well as medieval, Tudor and early modern retellings and translations. Works discussed include poems and plays by William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and others. Essays concentrate on specific plays including 'The Merchant of Venice' and 'Dido Queen of Carthage', tracing interactions between myths, chronicles, the Bible and contemporary genres. Mythological figures are considered to demonstrate how the weaving together of sources deconstructs gendered representations. New meanings emerge from these readings, which open up methodological perspectives on multi- textuality, artistic appropriation and cultural hybridity. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Shakespeare, William,|d1564-1616|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85120926 600 17 Shakespeare, William,|d1564-1616.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/29048 648 7 1500-1600|2fast 650 0 English drama|yEarly modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600 |xHistory and criticism.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008103081 650 0 Mythology in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85089438 650 7 Criticism and interpretation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1198648 650 7 Mythology in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1031717 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 Coffin, Charlotte,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2017029341|eeditor. 700 1 Lafont, Agnès,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013008132|eeditor. 700 1 Valls-Russell, Janice,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2015022442|eeditor. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1661947|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
