Description

Explore the role of the comic grotesque in late sixteenth-century culture with this scholarly study by Neil Rhodes. Originally published in 1980, this Routledge Revival examines how the grotesque shaped new styles of comic prose and drama during the Elizabethan era. This work provides a deep look into the definition of the grotesque by analyzing the stylistic techniques used by Rabelais and Aretino, alongside influences from the graphic arts. It offers a detailed examination of how these elements appeared in Elizabethan pamphlet literature and early satirical journals. For students and researchers of English literature, this book provides essential context on the development of literary styles in England. It fills a gap in critical attention regarding the impact of the grotesque on the period's most significant dramatic and prose works.
