Description

In this collection literary scholars, theorists and historians deploy economic techniques to illuminate English Renaissance literature in fresh ways. Contributors variously explore: poetry's precarious perch between gift and commodity; the longing for family in "The Comedy of Errors" as symbolically expressing the alienating pressures of mercantilism; "Measure for Measure"'s representation of single women and the feminization of poverty; the collision between two views of money in a possible collaboration between Shakespeare and Middleton; the cultural spread of an accounting mentality and quantitative thinking; and money as it crosses the frontier between price and pricelessness, and from early bodily injury insurance schemes to "The Merchant of Venice".
