It argues that the principal features of the poem-the staging of visual effects, the integration of military and horticultural imagery, and the subjectivity attributed to Maria Fairfax-are products of the conceptualization of territory or "dominion" the diagrams exemplify. In addition to offering a novel interpretation of "Upon Appleton House," the essay offers more broadly applicable insights into the relationships between space, land, and militarism in seventeenth-century England, and demonstrates how diagrammatic representation can be used as evidence in discussions of early modern literary and cultural phenomena. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Essay src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2011 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
