• 書目註：Cefalu offers the first sustained assessment of the ways in which recent contemporary philosophy and cultural theory -- including the work of Giorgio Agamben, Alain Badiou, Eric Santner, Slavojiek, and Alenka Zupancic -- can illuminate Early Modern literature and culture. The bookargues that when selected Early Modern devotional poets set out to represent subject-God relations, they often encounter some sublime aspect of God that, in Slovenian-Lacanian terms, seems "Other" to himself. This divine Other, while sometimes presented directly as a void or empty place, is more often filled inand presented instead as some form of divine excess. While Donne, and to a lesser extent Traherne, disavow thosenuminous aspects of God that might subsist beneath such excesses, Crashaw, and especially Milton, attempt to represent the intimate relationship between any creature's and God's intrinsicalterity. Cefalu introduces new ways of theorizing not only seventeenth-century religious ideologies,but also the nature of Early Modern subjectivity Includes bibliographical references (p. [201]-206) and index
