He illustrates how writers adapted allegory, a genre he sees as supple enough to accommodate the new and experimental ways of understanding the world that characterizes Enlightenment thinking and writing." -Sharon Harrow, Professor of English at Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania, USA. This Palgrave Pivot argues for the significance of allegory in Enlightenment writing. While eighteenth-century allegory has often been dismissed as an inadequate form, both in its time and in later scholarship, this short book reveals how Enlightenment writers adapted allegory to the cultural changes of the time. It examines how these writers analyzed earlier allegories with scientific precision and broke up allegory into parts to combine it with other genres. These experimentations in allegory reflected the effects of empiricism, secularization and a modern aesthetic that were transforming Enlightenment culture. Using a broad range of examples including classics of the genre, eighteenth-century texts and periodicals this book argues that the eighteenth century helped make allegory the flexible, protean literary form it is today. Jason J. Gulya is Professor of English at Berkeley College, USA, where he teaches courses on literature, composition, film, and the humanities more broadly. Over the last decade, he has taught at Berkeley, Rutgers University, Raritan Valley Community College, and Brookdale Community College. As a professor, he has earned various prestigious awards, including his colleges Faculty of the Year Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2020 and Rutgers Universitys Dissertation Teaching Award in 2015. 001451940 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (ProQuest Ebook Central platform, viewed February 9, 2023). 001451940 650_0 $$aEnglish literature$$y18th century$$xHistory and criticism. 001451940 650_0 $$aAllegory. 001451940 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001451940 655_7 $$aLiterary criticism.$$2lcgft 001451940 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001451940 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGULYA, JASON J.$$tALLEGORY IN ENLIGHTENMENT BRITAIN.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2022$$z3031190351$$w(OCoLC)1345514548 001451940 830_0 $$aPalgrave pivot. 001451940 852__ $$bebk 001451940 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-19036-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001451940 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1451940$$pGLOBAL_SET 001451940 980__ $$aBIB 001451940 980__ $$aEBOOK 001451940 982__ $$aEbook 001451940 983__ $$aOnline 001451940 994__ $$a92$$bISE
