The short, innovative essays included in this collection use original research to show how both form and materiality in the early modern period are inextricably bound up with each other, as well as with questions of embodiment and exclusion, sexual desire and colonial thinking. The essays illuminate the conditions of how we do early modern studies now, from issues about archival access in the postcolonial world to the core practices on which our discipline is based. \u003ci\u003eLiterary Form After Matter\u003c\/i\u003e provides a defence of the shared, detailed attention that the practice of close reading demands, and the rich rewards it can offer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47934110892268,"sku":"9781399551885","price":230.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781399551885-literary-form-after-matter-1550-1700.jpg?v=1783897535","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/literary-form-after-matter-15501700-9781399551885","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
