Description

Explore the mysteries of early modern English literary indirection in Pseudonymous Shakespeare: Rioting Language in the Sidney Circle. Published by Routledge, this scholarly investigation functions as detective work to unmask the identity of 'R.L.', a pseudonym linked to several late sixteenth-century works. McCarthy examines the specific devices used by writers within the Sidney coterie to hide their true identities or meanings. The study analyzes how authors utilized punning across different languages, the repetition of specific sounds, and the technique of hiding two distinct persons under a single identity. By looking at disingenuous juxtaposition, the evocation of original contexts, and significant differential spelling, this book provides a deep look into the linguistic strategies of the era. It offers a rigorous analysis of how writers navigated the literary landscape through clever linguistic masks and coded language.
