Intricate Movements Experimental Thinking and Human Analogies in Sidney and Spenser
Biography
Brad Tuggle earned an M.Phil. (with thesis) in Renaissance English Literature at Trinity College, Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. He then earned his Ph.D. at the University of Virginia, working with Elizabeth Fowler, James Nohrnberg, Katharine Maus, and Clare Kinney. After teaching stints at Sewanee and Spring Hill College, he is now an Associate Professor in the Honors College at The University of Alabama, his alma mater. His work has been published in Spenser Studies, Sidney Journal, and Explicator.
"A well-researched, rigorously argued, and tautly written study…Tuggle’s original and bold book is likely to provoke debate rather than consensus. In that, however, lies one of its main strengths. Many of its striking intuitions will invigorate further speculation about Sidney’s and Spenser’s poetry in light of contemporary ideas of what it means to be human." Danila Sokolov, Sidney Journal 38.1
