Professor Emeritus

Email: ronald.huebert@dal.ca

Research Topics:

• Early Modern literature
• John Donne
• Spectatorship
• Privacy

Education:

• BA - Saskatchewan
• MA, PhD - Pittsburgh

Professor Huebert has been concerned for many years with the nominally antithetical notions of spectatorship and privacy. At present, he is writing a work of historical fiction in which John Donne is the protagonist. All of these interests converge in his essay, "Looking at John Donne Looking at God," chapter seven in Early Modern Spectatorship, a collection of essays he edited in collaboration with David McNeil. The publication of his mongraph, Privacy in the Age of Shakespeare, was followed by a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Canadian Society for Renaissance Studies.

His taste for interdisciplinary thinking led him to serve for several years as Editor of The 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Review, and to participate in the development of the Early Modern Studies Program at the University of King's College. He loves live theatre and seventeenth-century manuscripts; he would not wish to choose one over the other.

• Gender studies
• Elizabethan and Jacobean drama
• 17th century women's writing

• BA, MA, PhD - Toronto

I began my academic career by focusing on the dark and labyrinthine plays of Shakespeare鈥檚 contemporary John Webster. In my PhD thesis (later published as "A Winter鈥檚 Snake: Dramatic Form in the Plays of John Webster", I argued that Webster uses principles of repetition and variation to structure his plays 鈥� principles that become especially evident in performance. I subsequently went on to edit both the text of Webster鈥檚 "The White Devil" and a volume of essays on Webster鈥檚 "Duchess of Malfi". But my fascination with Webster probably came in large part from his astonishing portraits of strong and complex female characters such as the Duchess of Malfi and Vittoria. In the last ten years I have extended my research to their real-life contemporaries, by exploring writing produced by early modern women of the same period: Mary Wroth, Rachel Speght, and Aemilia Lanyer. Instead of 鈥済hettoizing鈥� women writers, however, I seek to understand the cultural space shaped and inhabited by both male and female-authored works. My 2002 book, 鈥淎 Moving Rhetoricke: Gender and Silence in Early Modern England", for example, argued that silence was an unstable and contested site of meaning for early modern men and women alike. If masculine silence frequently imitated female self-containment, feminine silence often slid unmanageably from chastity to desire, obedience to resistance. If feminine silence began to do ideological work for early modern male authors by signalling the turn away from a rhetorical culture, early modern women writers appropriated the 鈥渕oving rhetoric鈥� of silence for their own purposes. My new book, "Liberty and the Politics of the Female Voice in Early Stuart England "(Cambridge University Press 2022) continues this work by examining the work of women writers through the lens of religious politics rather than gender. In a 1624 sermon by Puritan preacher William Whately, who ventriloquizes a wife chafing at her husband鈥檚 potential tyranny: 鈥淲hat if hee denie me the reasonable libertie which I desire, and should enjoy?鈥� (45). As contributions to early modern 鈥渞esistance theory,鈥� Whately鈥檚 sermons were censored by early modern authorities who quickly recognized that the marital relationship functioned as code for the larger concerns of political life.

In fact, their domestic subject matter was a thin veil for their criticism of King James, an increasingly autocratic monarch who represented himself as husband to the nation. Because Puritan preachers reached scores of literate and illiterate women with their sermons, urging them 鈥渢o listen with . . . diligence鈥� (Whately 189), they opened spaces for female political engagement. By first establishing their associations with Puritan publishers, printers and dedicatees, I argue that Whately鈥檚 most prominent female contemporaries recirculated the analogy between political and domestic space common in oppositional Puritan discourse. Seeking to edify and persuade a larger audience through print or manuscript circulation, they deployed the religio-political resonance of the female voice strategically to offer sustained political critique. Building on scholars who recognize that so-called domestic texts can be read as highly politicized in early modern England, I argue that women writers鈥� uses of such tropes are a question less of gender than of the political and religious engagements they shared with their male contemporaries.

My primary research interests lie in Victorian and Nineteenth-Century Studies, reflected in publications on Dickens, Charlotte Bront毛, Gaskell, Tennyson, Robert Browning, Christina Rossetti, Frederick Douglass, and Emily Dickinson, among other writers 鈥� especially Elizabeth Barrett Browning (EBB).  My fascination with EBB underlies the critical study Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1995), articles and essays about her writing and relationships with other authors, and collaborative editorial projects, including the five-volume Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning (2010). My interest in both the theory and practice of collaboration developed out of co-editing Writing Couples and the Construction of Authorship (2006). I also have long-standing interests in women鈥檚 writing more generally. Recently, I guest-edited a Forum on 鈥淧oetess Debates鈥� for Victorian Review (Fall, 2022). Currently, I am working on a contracted essay on EBB鈥檚 Aurora Leigh in relation to nineteenth-century sex trafficking, and a book project on the creative processes revealed by her widely scattered poetical manuscripts.

A Romanticist by profession and predilection, Judith Thompson hails from Ontario, where she received her BA from UWO in 1979. Six months wandering the moors and mountains of Britain and Europe, followed (and not completely undermined) by 7 years of grad school (at U of T), transformed her into a professor of British Romantic Literature, with a special interest in poetry and politics within the intersecting circles of the Romantic period. Her continuing and apparently permanent obsession is with the work of 鈥淐itizen John鈥� Thelwall, the polymath poet, playwright, novelist, orator, radical political activist, pioneer speech therapist and maker of the English working class, a linchpin figure who 鈥渟traddled the world of Wordsworth and Coleridge, and the world of the Spitalfields weavers.鈥�

Professor Thompson is a world leader in the rapidly expanding field of Thelwall Studies, and a founding member and official archivist of the John Thelwall Society. She edited Thelwall鈥檚 eccentric quasi-novel The Peripatetic in 2001, discovered a huge hidden cache of his unpublished poetry while Indiana Jonesing in the UK in 2004, and facilitated a world-premiere performance and video publication of his spectacular fantasy The Fairy of the Lake, in 2009.

In 2012 she published her revolutionary expos茅 of Thelwall鈥檚 role in Romanticism, John Thelwall in the Wordsworth Circle: The Silenced Partner and in 2013 she co-edited Thelwall鈥檚 feminist-abolitionist-anti-imperialist novel The Daughter of Adoption. She has also written and published on genre and collaboration, and has a strong interest in women鈥檚 writing. She is currently editing John Thelwall鈥檚 Selected Poetry and Poetics; after that she seems fated to write the first modern biography of Thelwall and who knows, maybe even a screenplay (it's one of the best untold stories in English literary history!). In the meantime she keeps finding new stuff, generating more research ideas than she can ever follow up, and therefore seeking to pass the torch to younger hands.

Dr. Thompson is currently editing Thelwall鈥檚 newly-discovered poetry in print and electronic format, and gathering archival materials towards her biography of Thelwall. She is or has recently written or presented on Transatlantic Thelwall, Romantic Oratory, Thelwall and Dickens, Adoption in Romantic-era novels, and Arthurian rivalries in the Romantic period; and is or has recently supervised theses on Romantic-era Medicine, Atheist Nationalism, and the Female Voice.

Thompson is looking for grad students eager to forge forward into unexplored territory in such diverse Thelwallian fields as romantic theatre, radical medicine, speech poetics, popular performance, working class culture, collaborative authorship, the history of adult education, and the relation between generations, genders and genres in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. As official archivist of the John Thelwall Society, Dr. Thompson is particularly interested in supervising editorial projects. If you work with Professor Thompson, you will have the rare opportunity to do truly pioneering research, even at the MA level; this was the case with Tara-Lynn Fleming, a chapter of whose 2006 MA thesis on Thelwall in the lyceum tradition was published in the first collection of scholarly essays on Thelwall in 2006.
