Chapter 9: Historicism and Cultural Studies

New Historicism

• New Historicism: A literary theory based on the idea that literature should be studied and interpreted within the context of both the history of the author and the critic.

New Historicism is based on the literary criticism of Stephen Greenblatt. New historicists see literary studies through a lens ranging from New Criticism to Deconstruction. New Historicism acknowledges not only that a work of literature is influenced by its author's times and circumstances, but that the critic's response to that work is also influenced by their environment, beliefs, and prejudices. New historicists examine how the writer’s times affected the work and how the work reflects the writer’s times.

Joseph Addison (1672–1719) from The Spectator, N 69 (Published in 1711)

The Royal Exchange

In the periodical The Spectator No. 69, Joseph Addison creates a persona that reveals a new, diverse society of merchants who established the Royal Exchange. These merchants rivaled the powers of Parliament and past Monarchies over the British domains.

The Royal Exchange, located in the heart of the City (London's financial district), was not only a hub for business but also a center for eighteenth-century essays, poetry, letters, and opinions, originally edited by Addison and Steele.

It stands as a symbol of globalisation, highlighting the “increasing importance of the international commerce to the British economy.” Addison believed the world seemed... Continue reading "Joseph Addison and the Royal Exchange: 18th-Century Commerce" »
