Title
The Philosopher'S Toothache: Embodied Stoicism In Early Modern English Drama (Rethinking The Early Modern),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Philosophers Toothache proposes that early modern Stoicism constituted a radical mode of performance. Stoicismwith its focus on bodily sensation, imagined spectatorship, and daily mental and physical exerciseexists as what the philosopher Pierre Hadot calls a way of life, a set of habits and practices. To be a Stoic is not to espouse doctrine but to act.Informed by work in both classical philosophy and performance studies, Donovan Sherman argues that Stoicism infused the complex theatrical culture of early modern England. Plays written and performed during this period gave life to Stoic exercises that instructed audiences to cultivate their virtue, selfawareness, and creativity. By foregrounding Stoicisms embodied nature, Sherman recovers a vital dimension too often lost in reductive portrayals of the Stoics by early modern writers and contemporary scholars alike. The Philosophers Toothache features readings of dramatic works by William Shakespeare, Cyril Tourneur, and John Marston alongside considerations of early modern adaptations of classical Stoics (Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius) and NeoStoics such as Justus Lipsius. These plays model Stoic virtues like unpredictability, indifference, vulnerability, and dependenceattributes often framed as negative but that can also rekindle a sense of responsible public action.
