Description:

The Inarticulate Renaissance explores the conceptual potential of the disabled utterance in the English literary Renaissance.

Review Quotes: "Carla Mazzio's erudite and nuanced The Inarticulate Renaissance explores the other face of the era's preoccupation with rhetorical eloquence, suggesting an entire counter-history of linguistic disorder and disjunction, of aphasia and the profusion of tongues. . . . It is rare to find [this] degree of conceptual force and interpretive finesse coupled to such scholarly reach. This is a thoroughly compelling book, one that will extend the purview of the field."-- "Renaissance Quarterly"
