Tis All One "the Anatomy of Melancholy" as Belated Copious Discourse
Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers (1999)
Abstract
Whether regarded as medical treatise or brilliant satire, The Anatomy of Melancholy reflects Robert Burton's frustrations over "too many books" to research in the context of Erasmus' model of copious discourse. Aiming to infuse undergraduate literature courses with poststructuralist criticism now mainly the realm of graduate study, Schmelzer (St. Joseph's College, Phila., PA) places Erasmus' De Copia (1512) center stage in the epistemological shift to the empirical validation of truth in 17th century Western Europe.
