Description

The latest groundbreaking work in eighteenth-century studies. Showcasing exciting new research across disciplines, Volume 53 of Studies in Eighteenth-Century Culture explores the juxtaposition between the fanciful romances and historical realities of the global eighteenth century. Katarzyna Bartoszynska assembles a series of essays on the work of the late seventeenth-century Japanese writer Ihara Saikaku. Susan Spencer evaluates Saikaku's status as a celebrity author, David A. Brewer considers the uses of woodcuts in Saikaku's texts, and Scott Black reflects on Saikaku's relationship to modernity and realism. In other essays, new perspectives are offered on the ideological functions of literary texts and visual art produced in Britain, France, and Anglophone North America. Ziona Kocher examines the queer pleasures of cross-dressing in William Wycherley's The Country Wife, and Anaclara Castro-Santana reads Benjamin Hoadly's The Suspicious Husband as a political production.
