| Description: |
A reassessment of the historic relation between money and the state through the lens of early modern English literature, "Coinage and State Formation" examines the political implications of the monetary form in light of material and visual properties of coins as well as the persistence of both intrinsic and extrinsic theories of value. In an intersection between new materialist and new economic criticism, Deng reveals how material uses and literary representations of coins inform various key elements of early modern English state formation through both historical analyses of English coinage and readings of texts by Thomas More, William Shakespeare, John Donne, and Thomas Dekker, among others. |
