Pre-modern ideas about language are combined with recent models of subject formation, especially Lacan's, to theorize and analyze the stage 'self' as a variable linguistic construct. Both the approach itself and the conclusions it generates significantly diverge from the standard New Historicist\/Cultural Materialist narrative of subjectivity. Plays range from the Corpus Christi pageants to the Beaumont and Fletcher canon, with Shakespeare a recurrent focus and Hamlet, inevitably, the pivotal text.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737167003936,"sku":"NEW0333628993","price":123.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61FRGetwjZL.jpg?v=1779552544","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/self-speaking-in-medieval-and-early-modern-english-drama-subjectivity-discourse-and-the-stage-0333628993","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
