Description

This scholarly investigation examines modes of early modern English literary indirection and uncovers the mystery of a pseudonym attached to late sixteenth-century works. McCarthy's analysis focuses on the Sidney coterie, scrutinising the literary devices employed by writers of the era including punning across languages, repetitio, disingenuous juxtaposition, evocation of original context, and differential spelling. The study presents compelling conclusions about Shakespeare's use of these techniques, grounded in detailed textual evidence. For scholars, students, and readers interested in Renaissance literature, Shakespearean studies, and the complex networks of the Sidney Circle, this book offers fresh insights into how early modern writers used coded language and rhetorical strategies to convey meaning whilst obscuring their identities.

Key Features

Investigates literary indirection techniques used by writers in the Sidney coterie during the late sixteenth century.

Analyses the pseudonym 'R.L.' and traces its connections to Shakespearean works through detailed textual examination.

Explores punning across languages, repetitio, and differential spelling as methods for encoding meaning in early modern texts.

Examines how juxtaposition and contextual evocation allowed writers to communicate obscurely within their literary circles.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in literary criticism and drama studies.

Essential resource for scholars studying Shakespeare, the Sidney Circle, and Renaissance poetry and drama.
