    POPE’S MYTHOLOGIES
    A.D. COUSINS
    This volume is the first to discuss the canon of Pope’s verse in relation to Early British Enlightenment thinking about mythology and mythography.

Although there has been much commentary on this phenomenon as represented in English Renaissance literature, there has been nothing written at length about its...

    ANDREW MARVELL
    A. D. COUSINS
    This monograph studies how, across the Folio of 1681, Marvell's poems engage not merely with different kinds of loss and aspiration, but with experiences of both that were, in mid-seventeenth-century England, disturbingly new and unfamiliar. It particularly examines Marvell's preoccupation with the search for home, and with redefining the homeland, in times of civil upheaval. I...

    SHAKESPEARE'S SONNETS AND NARRATIVE POEMS

Professor Cousins' new book is the first comprehensive study of the Sonnets and narrative poems for over a decade. He focuses in particular on their exploration of self-knowledge, sexuality, and death, as well as ...
