| dc.description.abstract | This thesis examines Urania’s navigation of the various garden spaces represented in Part One of Lady Mary Wroth’s pastoral romance The Countess of Montgomery’s Urania. This project seeks to show that the early modern pleasure garden in England may have been a cultural discourse that informed the portrayal of female subjectivity in the Urania. Since Urania is a pastoral figure in a text that predominantly adheres to the generic conventions of the chivalric romance, her experience of and movement through garden spaces engenders the interaction between the pastoral and romance genres in the Urania. It is in these moments of generic interplay in the enclosed space of the garden that narrative time expands in Urania’s memory, where her physical and mental mobility become visible expressions of female subjectivity. | en_US |
