Abstract

Abstract:With the publication of Spenser's Mutabilitie Cantos in 1609, together with the 1596 edition, The Faerie Queene effectually had a new ending, and, with John Upton's edition in 1758, newly explained sabbatical punning in this ending's close. My article centers primarily on this wordplay, bringing it, along with the theme of sovereignty in the Cantos, into relation with Giorgio Agamben's genealogy of "economic theology," an immanent ordering within divinity and the cosmos. Secondarily, I treat the ending of book 6, which gives way in book 7 to a reading experience that is divinely comic.

斯宾塞《仙后》中的安息日双关语和奥克诺米娅

摘要:随着1609年斯宾塞的《变动性诗篇》的出版，以及1596年版的《仙后》实际上有了一个新的结局，而随着1758年约翰·厄普顿版的出版，《仙后》在这个结局的结尾重新解释了安息双关语。我的文章主要集中在这个文字游戏上，把它和《三章》中的主权主题一起，与乔治·阿甘本的“经济神学”谱系联系起来，这是神和宇宙的内在秩序。其次，我要讲第六本书的结尾，第七本书的结尾是一种非常有趣的阅读体验。

期刊介绍： SEL focuses on four fields of British literature in rotating, quarterly issues: English Renaissance, Tudor and Stuart Drama, Restoration and Eighteenth Century, and Nineteenth Century. The editors select learned, readable papers that contribute significantly to the understanding of British literature from 1500 to 1900. SEL is well known for thecommissioned omnibus review of recent studies in the field that is included in each issue. In a single volume, readers might find an argument for attributing a previously unknown work to Shakespeare or de-attributing a famous work from Milton, a study ofthe connections between class and genre in the Restoration Theater.
