Synopsis
This book will be of use to students, postgraduates, and scholars with interests in the history of the senses and in Renaissance and early modern literature and culture. It offers new readings of influential texts by authors including Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Amelia Lanyer, and Robert Boyle., Elizabeth Swann investigates the relationship between the physical sense of taste and taste as a figurative term associated with knowledge and judgment in early modern literature and culture. She argues that - unlike aesthetic taste in the eighteenth century - discriminative taste was entwined with embodied experience in this period. Although taste was tarnished by its associations with Adam and Eve's fall from Eden, it also functioned positively, as a source of useful, and potentially redemptive, literary, spiritual, experimental, and intersubjective knowledge. Taste and Knowledge in Early Modern England juxtaposes canonical literary works by authors such as Shakespeare with a broad range of medical, polemical, theological, philosophical, didactic, and dietetic sources. In doing so, the book reveals the central importance of taste to the experience and articulation of key developments in the literate, religious, and social cultures of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries., "This book investigates the relation between the physical sense of taste, and taste as a figurative term used to denote various forms of discrimination, judgment, and knowledge in early modern England. It argues that in this period taste played a key role in the cultivation of humanist erudition and literary judgment, in the development of the experimental and empirical methodologies associated with modern science, in theological debates about how best to access divine truth, and in the experience and articulation of intersubjective knowledge and sexual desire. It also explores the role of embodied experiences of tasting in the formation of early modern subjectivities, and probes perceived links between the lower senses and the feminine in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Attending to early modern notions of 'taste', I propose, facilitates recognition of the hybridity of early modern processes of knowing, which operate across modern binaries of corporeality and intellect, nature and society, and art and science"--
