Hamlet–A Never-Ending Story/Hamlet: nikoli zakljucena zgodba
This article fuses a survey of the play's most important standard interpretations with those aspects which may be considered particularly fascinating about this text: the conflict of England's catholic past with the rise of protestant culture in the early modern period; the meta-dramatic dimension of the play; the theatricality of Renaissance court life; the play's reflection of the emerging modern subject triggered off by the rise of reformation discourse. To elucidate some aspects which tend to be overlooked in the scholarly discussion of Hamlet, the article will bring two important topics into focus: the courtly discovery of perspective and the dying Hamlet's request to tell his story to the afterworld at the end of the play. Keywords: Shakespeare, Hamlet, revenge, modern subject, reformation discourse, meta-drama, manipulation of perspective, never-ending narrative loop Clanek zdruzuje pregled najpomembnejsih sandardnih interpretacij s tistimi vidiki, ki bi lahko bili se posebej fascinantni o tem tekstu: konflikt angleske katoliske preteklosti s protestantsko kulturo v obdubje zgodnje modern, meta-dramatsko dimenzijo igre, teatralicnost renesancnega dvornega zivljenja, itd. Kljucne besede: Shakespeare, Hamlet, mascevanje, pripovedna zanka, reformacijski diskurz, meta-drama

Reformation unbound : Protestant visions of reform in England, 1525-1590
\"Fundamentally revising the understanding of the nature and intellectual contours of early English Protestantism, Karl Gunther argues that sixteenth- century English evangelicals were calling for reforms and envisioning godly life in ways that were far more radical than have hitherto been appreciated. Typically such ideas have been seen as later historical developments, associated especially with radical puritanism, but Gunther's work draws attention to their development in the earliest decades of the English Reformation. Along the way, the book offers new interpretations of central episodes in this period of England's history, such as the \"Troubles at Frankfurt\" under Mary and the Elizabethan vestments controversy. By shedding new light on early English Protestantism, the book ultimately casts the later development of puritanism in a new light, enabling us to re-situate it in a history of radical Protestant thought that reaches back to the beginnings of the English Reformation itself\"-- Provided by publisher.

The literary culture of the reformation : grammar and grace
This book examines the place of literature in the Reformation, considering both how arguments about biblical meaning and literary interpretation influenced the new theology, and how developments in theology in turn influenced literary practices. Part One focuses on Northern Europe, reconsidering the relationship between Renaissance humanism (especially Erasmus) and religious ideas (especially Luther). Parts Two and Three examine Tudor and early Stuart England. Part Two describes the rise of vernacular theology and Protestant culture in relation to fundamental changes in the understanding of the English language. Part Three studies English religious poetry (including Donne, Herbert, and, in an Epilogue, Milton) in the wake of these changes. Bringing together genres and styles of writing that are normally kept apart (poems, sermons, treatises, commentaries), the author offers a re-evaluation of the literary production of this intensely verbal and controversial period.
