Hecht, Paul J., 'Introduction: What Rosalind Likes', What Rosalind Likes: Pastoral, Gender, and the Founding of English Verse (Oxford , 2022; online edn, Oxford Academic, 18 Aug. 2022), https://doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780192857200.003.0001, accessed 15 July 2024.
Abstract
The Introduction lays out the aims and stakes of the project as a technical history of Rosalind and a biography of poetry, terminology that suggests the project’s alignment with methodologies associated with postcritique, and a specific aim to connect aesthetics and classical reception through poetic form with debates over gender and sexuality. These topics are explored through analyses of formative theory by Theodor Adorno and Leo Bersani, and more recent queer feminist work by Janet Halley and Amber Musser. The chapter ends with an analysis of an early version of a play by Ben Jonson, Every Man In His Humour.
