Description

"Citizen-Saints uses key works by Shakespeare as well as Marlowe and Milton to examine the aims, limits, and legacies of classical and modern citizenship in Western literature. What Julia Reinhard Lupton defines as the literature of citizenship both encapsulates and dramitizes the imaginative and political contest between local regions of cult, culture, and community and more universal and impersonal economies of law and historical belonging."--Jacket.
