Beschreibung

Bringing together eminent scholars and emerging critics who offer a range of perspectives and critical methods, this collection sets a new standard in Beddoes criticism. In line with the goals of Ashgate''s Research Companion series, the editors and contributors provide an overview of Beddoes''s criticism and identify significant new directions in Beddoes studies. These include exploring Beddoes''s German context, only recently a site of critical attention; reading Beddoes''s plays in light of gender theory; and reassessing Beddoes''s use of dramatic genre in the context of recent work by theatre historians. Rounding out the volume are essays devoted to key areas in Beddoes''s scholarship such as nineteenth-century medical theories, psychoanalytic myth, and Romantic ventriloquism. This collection makes the case for Beddoes''s centrality to contemporary debates about nineteenth-century literary culture and its contexts and his influence on Modernist conceptions of literature.
