Scholars' Press. Paperback. New. Paperback. 132 pages. Dimensions: 8.7in. x 5.9in. x 0.3in.This study examines literary depictions of the gifts exchanged when friends and lovers part, and the impact that these gifts and the farewell during which they are given have on the reunions the texts depict or anticipate. Chapter One argues that in Thomas Dekkers The Shoemakers Holiday, when Ralph Damport gives his wife, Jane, a decorative pair of shoes they position her as a gentlewoman and as a gentlemans fiance rather than a shoemakers wife. Chapter Two examines Amelia Lanyers Salve dedications, arguing that she positions herself as an intermediary between Christ and her reader and her book as a gift that demands reciprocation. Chapter Three analyzes the farewell exchange of a ring and a bracelet between newly married Innogen and Posthumus in Shakespeares Cymbeline. While the spouses offer their gifts as pledges of love and loyalty, this exchange quickly degenerates into a competition over which gift, and which giver, is most valuable. Chapter Four examines Shakespeares Troilus and Cressida, and the spontaneous exchange of a sleeve and a glove that the lovers enact when they part. In this exchange, they become agents who attempt to rewrite their well known fates. This item ships from multiple locations. Your book may arrive from Roseburg,OR, La Vergne,TN.
