Download or read book Reading Humility in Early Modern England written by Professor Jennifer Clement and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While humility is not especially valued in modern Western culture, Clement argues, it is central to early modern understandings of Christian faith and behavior, and is vital to contemporary concepts of the self. Early modern literary engagements with humility link it to self-knowledge through the practice of right reading. This study complicates modern views of an early modern virtue, and challenges the assumption that agency is always defined by resistance.
