Samples of English Renaissance sonnets Edmund Spenser (c.1552-1599) From Amoretti sonnets "One day I wrote her name upon the strand" One day I wrote her name upon the strand, But came the waves and washed it away: Again I wrote it with a second hand, But came the tide, and made my pains his prey. Vain man, said she, that dost in vain assay A mortal thing so to immortalize! For I myself shall like to this decay, And eek my name be wiped out likewise. Not so (quoth I), let baser things devise To die in dust, but you shall live by fame: My verse your virtues rare shall eternize, And in the heavens write your glorious name; Where, whenas death shall all the world subdue, Our love shall live, and later life renew. "Fair is my love, when her fair golden hairs" Fair is my love, when her fair golden hairs With the loose wind ye waving chance to mark: Fair, when the rose in her red cheeks appears, Or in her eyes the fire of love does spark: Fair, when her breast, like a rich laden bark With precious merchandise she forth doth lay: Fair, when that cloud of pride, which oft doth dark

71. Sidney Sidney s niece, Lady mary wroth, published The Countesse of Montgomeries Uraniain 1621the first published work of fiction by an Englishwoman. http://social.chass.ncsu.edu/wyrick/debclass/sidney.htm

Sidney's Arcadia and Wroth's Urania The consummate literary courtier, Sir Philip Sidney, wrote his massively influential romance[s?] in the late sixteenth century: the Old Arcadia in the 70s (a text that underwent at least four major revisions), the New Arcadia in the early 80s, and the composite Arcadia published in 1593. Therefore, what is referred to as Sidney's Arcadia is an extremely slippery, unstable text. With a slippery author-the composite Arcadia (which grafts the last three books of the Old Arcadia to the New Arcadia , which ends in mid-sentence during Book Three, and which rearranges and augments other parts of the Old and New Arcadias Given this history, it's not surprising that the Arcadia (by this term, I guess I mean all of them) is a hybrid text, using poetry, theatrical structure, and rhetorical set-pieces to embellish a bipolar narrative in which the world of pastoral counters the world of courtly romance with the aim of showing how gentlemanly virtue and effective government are fashioned. Another aim, evidently, was to provide an alternative to euphuism: Sidney's "Arcadian" style is considerably more direct than Lyly's style. A brief example may be illustrative. Here, a prince complains of being trapped in a court-dictated role that isolates him from heroic action and from authentic identity: Alas, incomparable Philoclea, thou ever seest me, but dost never see me as I am: thou hearest willingly all that I dare say, and I dare not say that which were most fit for thee to heare. Alas, who ever but I was imprisoned in libertie, and banished being still present? To whom but me have lovers bene jailours, and honour a captivitie?

Broadband FilmFour Text Only TV Listings ... LIFE Women In 1652, the Ely assizes hears the case of John Barnes, who, returning from an alehouse 'hot with beer', beats and kicks his wife. His neighbours, however, don't tolerate this and give evidence against him. The excesses of male patriarchy do not go unchallenged. In theory, women are socially and legally inferior: unable to vote, not educated, barely allowed to trade, and have to be widows before they can control their own property. In practice, English women, when compared with those of other European countries, enjoy a greater degree of freedom. Blood feuds on points of female honour are rare. But women don't have an easy time. Some blame the effects of the Reformation, which abolished the Virgin Mary as a symbol of womanhood and led to the closure of nunneries, which offered women careers outside of marriage. Marriage On 11 December 1644, the diarist Ralph Josselin records that, at the wedding of one of his less prosperous parishioners, the groom gives ribbons and gloves as presents, and that 'there was very good company.' While the less well-off make an effort, the richer gentry indulge in splendid weddings, with huge quantities of food and ale consumed. Generally, the lower down the social scale you are, the freer is your choice of marriage partner. And while men do most of the wooing, women often also propose marriage.
