RT Book T1 Early modern literature and the bodies of a reformed Eucharist T2 New directions in religion and literature A1 Sandberg, Julianne LA English PP New York London Oxford New Delhi Sydney PB Bloomsbury Academic YR 2025 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1901739732 AB "Examining what the eucharist taught early modern writers about their bodies and how it shaped the bodies they wrote about, this book shows how the exegetical roots of the Eucharistic controversy in 16th century England had very material and embodied consequences. Sandberg provides new insights into how Edmund Spenser, William Shakespeare, John Donne, and Aemilia Lanyer use the reformed eucharistic paradigm to imagine the embodied significance of the sacrament for their own bodies, the bodies of their narrative subjects, and the body of their literary work"-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN PR428.L67 SN 978-1-350-45289-3 SN 978-1-350-45405-7 K1 English literature : Early modern, 1500-1700 : History and criticism K1 Lord's Supper in literature K1 Human body in literature K1 Christianity and literature : England : History : 16th century K1 Christianity and culture : England : History : 16th century K1 Literary Criticism
