Visualizing Surfaces, Surfacing Vision
In this Introduction to a special section on 'Visualizing Surfaces, Surfacing Vision', the authors argue that to conceive vision in the contemporary world it is necessary to examine its embedding within, expression via and organization on the surface. First, they review recent social and cultural theories to demonstrate how and why an attention to surfaces is salient today. Second, they consider how vision may be understood in terms of surfaces, …

Howe…

This essay argues that the material invocation of Ovid's Metamorphoses in The Most Lamentable Roman Tragedie of Titus Andronicus (c. 1594) initiates an interrogation of the cultural politics of translation in early modern England. By comparing Shakespeare's play with Edward Ravenscroft's seventeenth‐century revision, Titus Andronicus, or the Rape of Lavinia (first performed 1678, first published 1687), the discussion focuses on ways in which the …
Ovid's Metamorphoses and the Sexual Politics of Translation in Early Modern England
This article considers the relationship between women and Ovid's Metamorphoses in early modern England. Louise Schleiner states that one of ‘Englishwomen's favourite writings and modes of discourse to echo, tease into their texts, or handle revisionistically’ was ‘Ovid (the Metamorphoses, Heroides and the Amores in translation)’.1 But close, critical discussion of women's engagement with Ovid's Metamorphoses is a neglected area. Moving from conte…
