What’s Wrong with Mis-devotion? A John Donne Enigma
The nominal purpose of this article is to develop a cogent and persuasive interpretation of the term “mis-devotion,” a coinage John Donne uses twice in his poems: once near the end of The Second Anniversary and once in the second stanza of “The Relic.” I also cite the two known examples of this term in Donne’s prose, from the final paragraph of Biathanatos and from a sermon he preached at St. Paul’s (21 May 1626); and I cite several closely relat…

One Wench between Them
The crudest and most repugnant way of showing allegiance to the double standard of sexual morality is to assume that women — and women only — deserve to die for sexual offences. This principle is never stated quite so nakedly, even in Jacobean drama where, in general, crude and repugnant positions are likely to have their adherents. But the assumption is a pervasive one nonetheless. Think of Othello, who repents of his violence to Desdemona only …
Tobacco and Boys
I am assuming in what follows that Marlowe was gay. Since this is a judgement about Marlowe’s experience (rather than a fact in his biography), it’s not the sort of thing you can prove to everybody’s satisfaction. Richard Baines, who gave the Privy Council a spectacularly unfavourable appraisal of Marlowe’s character, attributes to him the saying ‘that all they that love not tobacco & Boyes were fooles’. 1 And Marlowe’s written work is often as o…
The Gendering of Privacy
The question I propose to address is this: in early modern culture, did women and men experience privacy in much the same way? The short answer is of course no, for a variety of intuitively sound reasons. Consider the relationship between the male speaker and the female listener in Donne's 'A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning'. Wonderful and mutual and interdependent though their love may be, they can create the perfect circle at the end of the po…
"An Artificial way to Grieve"
The figure of the forsaken woman is a distinctive and recurring landmark in the world of Jacobean and Caroline tragedy. She may take the form of a wife betrayed, a mistress discarded, or a virgin scorned, but she is always a woman cut loose from her social moorings and set adrift in a vortex of pathos. Typically, she is the victim of collaboration between a repressive social system and an aggressive male ego. Her complaint is hardly new: her clas…
Performing Anatomy
Peut-on dire qu’il y avait quelque chose de véritablement théâtral dans les événements ayant eu lieu dans les soi-disant théâtres de l’anatomie de la Renaissance ? À cette question, je propose quatre réponses, différentes mais liées, basées sur les archives étudiées par de précédents spécialistes et sur les preuves visuelles nous permettant d’imaginer la manière dont les dissections s’effectuaient il y a 400 ans. La leçon d’anatomie du docteur Ni…
