Description: Critical Essays on British LiteratureJames Nagel, Series Editor, University of GeorgiaG. K. Halls three series of critical essays give comprehensive coverage of major authors worldwide and throughout history. The full range of literary traditions and schools is represented. Each new volume is carefully conceived and developed to fill a gap in the literary criticism available today.Volume editors are established authorities on the lives, works, and critical receptions of their subjects. They are uniquely qualified to ensure the spectrum of critical controversies, trends, and techniques inspired by their subjects in their own countries and abroad, in their own eras and today.Each volume features:an introduction which provides the reader with a lucid overview of criticism from its beginningsilluminating controversies, evaluating approaches, and sorting out the schools of thought the most influential reviews and the best of reprinted scholarly essaysa section devoted exclusively to reviews and reactions by the subjects contemporariesoriginal essays, new translations, and revisions commissioned especially for the seriespreviously unpublished materialssuch as interviews, lost letters, and manuscript fragments a bibliography of the subjects writings and interviews a name and subject indexA volume of essays on Ben Jonson offers a rare opportunity for historical perspective on criticism itself. Critical Essays on Ben Jonson therefore pairs modern commentaries with brief early ones on the same works and issues. Because he succeeded as an author so early in the history of that profession, and continues to win attention as both an aesthetic and a political writer, this volume can provide evaluations of Jonson from his own time that compare instructively with the best produced by the modern academic system. The essays are written by distinguished commentators at both ends of the chronological range, from the 16th to the 20th centuries. Together they provide the best early case study of English literary criticism, the clearest evidence of the purposes for which Renaissance literature was produced and the principles by which it was judged, and superb and varied examples of the ways we are using and understanding that literature now.

Description: Benjamin Jonson (1572-1637) was an English Renaissance dramatist, poet and actor. A good friend of William Shakespeare, he is best known for his satirical plays, particularly Volpone and The Alchemist which are considered his best, and his lyric poems. A man of vast reading and a seemingly insatiable appetite for controversy, Jonson had an unparalleled breadth of influence on Jacobean and Caroline playwrights and poets.

Description: Although Ben Jonson's association with architecture is well known, comparatively little research has been devoted to the influence of architectural thinking on his literary work. This book sets out to explore the possibilities suggested by such an interrelationship. Using annotated architectural volumes surviving from Jonson's library as well as his published works, Anthony Johnson surveys the evidence for Jonson's knowledge of, and theoretical agreement with, the architectural principles enunciated in the De architectura libri decem of the Roman architect, Vitruvius. This original and ambitious study argues that Jonson employed a form of literary Vitruvianism which was a potent force in the shaping of the early masques of his Catholic period, and was to remain an active influence on poetic composition throughout the succeeding century.
