Knights in Arms moves beyond the best-known examples of the genre, such as Philip Sidney’s Arcadia, to consider the broad range of texts which featured the Eastern Mediterranean in this era.
This collection of original essays uses contemporary theory to examine Renaissance writers’ reworking of Ovid’s texts in order to analyze the strategies in the construction of the early modern discourses of gender, sexuality, and writing.
