Description

This scholarly work by Joshua Phillips challenges the conventional narrative that the Renaissance marked the decline of communal identity in English culture. Through detailed analysis of prose fiction spanning from Malory's Morte Darthur to the works of Sir Philip Sidney and Thomas Nashe, the study examines how collective agency remained central to Tudor society. Rather than accepting the myth of early modern individuation that dominates Renaissance scholarship, Phillips demonstrates the persistent importance of group affiliation and communal bonds throughout the 1485-1603 period. This Routledge publication offers fresh perspectives on how English Renaissance literature reflects and sustains communal identities, making it essential reading for students and scholars of literary theory, Renaissance history, and the cultural significance of group identity in early modern England.

Key Features

Examines English prose fiction from Malory's Morte Darthur through Sir Philip Sidney and Thomas Nashe to trace communal identity across the 1485-1603 period.

Challenges the dominant scholarly view that individuation replaced collective agency during the Renaissance era in Tudor culture.

Analyses the concept of collective agency and its extensive impact on English Renaissance literary and cultural production.

Published by Routledge as an academic study in literary theory and Renaissance history, suitable for university-level research and critical analysis.
