{"product_id":"petrarchan-love-and-the-english-renaissance","title":"Petrarchan Love and the English Renaissance","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book surveys English love poetry, primarily, though not exclusively, sonnets and sonnet sequences that show the influence of Petrarch, from the early sixteenth century to the publication of Mary Wroth's Pamphilia to Amphilanthus in 1621. It incorporates a range of new scholarship and thinking into narrative history, with a focus on particular poets including Thomas Wyatt, George Gascoigne, Philip Sidney, Fulke Greville, Samuel Daniel, Wroth,\n\u003cbr\u003eWalter Ralegh, and Shakespeare, as well as particularly notable poems such as \"They flee from me\", \"Gascoigne's Woodmanship\", and \"The Ocean's Love to Cynthia\".The self-absorption of Petrarchan\n\u003cbr\u003elyricism is brought into a more populous environment and is linked to the ambitious and intense world of the English court, within which many of these poets lived and worked. During the reign of Queen Elizabeth, the Petrarchan theme of love for a powerful but distant woman was literalized in the politics of the realm, in ways that the queen herself recognized and exploited. A final chapter offers a new model for the implied narrative of Shakespeare's sonnets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44156168110318,"sku":"9780192858368","price":183.29,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780192858368.jpg?v=1706242782","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/petrarchan-love-and-the-english-renaissance","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
