The Pickled Parson of Sedgefield
The future of parenting plan evaluations
As expectations rise for parenting plan evaluators to be well‐trained, skilled, and knowledgeable in numerous subject areas, and scrutiny of evaluators' work intensifies, the pool of qualified evaluators is shrinking nationwide. The future of parenting plan evaluation as a forensic subspecialty relies upon the availability of competent and committed professionals to do this challenging work, yet few are entering the field. Five experienced parent…
Rebecca Lemon, Addiction and Devotion in Early Modern England
What do we mean when we say someone is addicted? Scholarship on the subject points to the pioneering work of Thomas Trotter and Benjamin Rush in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries: they proposed that habitual drunkenness should be treated as a disease, not as a series of free choices. But it is Rebecca Lemon’s contention that we should look further back in history to understand what addiction is: while the disease model may be formally …

Donne's convalescence
This article argues that the period of Donne's convalescence immediately after his near‐fatal illness in late 1623 is crucial for an understanding of the text it spawned, his Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions (1624). A unique work of meditative writing composed in under a month, the Devotions centres on the author's ‘Steps in my Sicknes’ but does so through the quieter time of spiritual stock‐taking that succeeded it. The period of recovery from …
Beyond Melancholy
This latest book in Oxford’s ‘Emotions in History’ series examines the cultural, medical and literary connotations of sorrow and sadness in the period c.1560–1660. Starting with the famously enigmatic opening line spoken by Antonio in The Merchant of Venice—‘In sooth, I know not why I am so sad’—Erin Sullivan considers the ways in which sadness was classified, diagnosed and recorded; and further, the ways it was reinvented and imagined. Concerned…
Richard's back
The body of a mediaeval monarch was always under scrutiny, and Richard III's was no exception. In death, however, his body became subject to new forms of examination and interpretation: stripped naked after the battle of Bosworth, his corpse was carried to Leicester and exhibited before being buried. In 2012, it was rediscovered. The revelation that Richard suffered from scoliosis prompts this article to re-evaluate the historical sources about R…
Melancholy, Medicine and Religion in Early Modern England
Lund, Mary Ann. Melancholy, Medicine and Religion in Early Modern England: Reading The Anatomy of Melancholy. An article from journal Renaissance and Reformation / Renaissance et Réforme (Variétés Bibliographiques), on Érudit
Melancholy, Medicine and Religion in Early Modern England
The Anatomy of Melancholy, first published in 1621, is one of the greatest works of early modern English prose writing, yet it has received little substantial literary criticism in recent years. This study situates Robert Burton's complex work within three related contexts: religious, medical and literary/rhetorical. Analysing Burton's claim that his text should have curative effects on his melancholic readership, it examines the authorial constr…
