Writing Metamorphosis in the English Renaissance: 1550–1700
Wiseman, Susan (Birkbeck, University of London)
Wiseman explores the transformations of fantastic creatures including werewolves and wild children in English Renaissance writing. Analysing a variety of texts, from Shakespeare's The Tempest to court records, Writing Metamorphosis in the English Renaissance argues that the seventeenth century is marked by concentration on the potential of the human to change or be changed.
