This paper traces out the authorial agency and the ideological narrative production through Thomas Nashe’s The Unfortunate Traveller. The relationship between author and literary environment in the English Renaissance age should be considered to understand the text. In the English Renaissance age the relationship between author and readership had drastically been changing as the dynamic period corresponding to the cultural and social changes shows the various readership that requires new taste. In the process Thomas Nashe in his work had made at once conscious design and unconscious production in which a strong authorial agency has been fruitful and the bourgeois ideology have been unintentionally produced. Nashe’s unconscious design may be understood as the political unconscious in which Frederic Jameson has coined. In order to understand the text’s narrative structure, Terry Eagleton’s concept of ideology has been applied to the text. Overall, Nashe’s text can be interpreted as one of the important narratives to understand the relationship between author and text in the English Renaissance age because it shows a variety of voices in which authors, text and its reader are closely connected together.
Abstract
This paper traces out the authorial agency and the ideological narrative production through Thomas Nashe’s The Unfortunate Traveller. The relationship between author and literary environment in the English Renaissance age should be considered to understand the text. In the English Renaissance age the relationship between author and readership had drastically been changing as the dynamic period corresponding to the cultural and social changes shows the various readership that requires new taste. In the process Thomas Nashe in his work had made at once conscious design and unconscious production in which a strong authorial agency has been fruitful and the bourgeois ideology have been unintentionally produced. Nashe’s unconscious design may be understood as the political unconscious in which Frederic Jameson has coined. In order to understand the text’s narrative structure, Terry Eagleton’s concept of ideology has been applied to the text. Overall, Nashe’s text can be interpreted as one of the important narratives to understand the relationship between author and text in the English Renaissance age because it shows a variety of voices in which authors, text and its reader are closely connected together.
