Introduction: Refashioning Ben Jonson

Abstract

The concept of ‘refashioning’ is a loaded one in the context of the study of early modern literature. The title of this collection deliberately acknowledges the influence of that founding moment of New Historicist studies of the period, Stephen Greenblatt’s Renaissance Self-Fashioning , 1 and yet it is necessary to observe that Greenblatt’s text studiously avoided the self-avowedly paradoxical figure of Benjamin Jonson in its considerations of other literary, social and political shapings and fashioners of the Renaissance. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
