Sonst gut und sauber. - Throughout his work, Ben Jonson referred -JL to wri…ting in terms of ingestion, digestion, and excretion, mimicking the functions of the digestive tract. In The Fury of Mens Gullets, Bruce Boehrer explores the poets fascination with alimentary matters and the way in which such references describe Jonsons personal and cultural transformation. Drawing on the theoretical work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, the author studies the alimentary and convivial language in Jonsons work. He suggests that these pervasive metaphors provided the poet with a vocabulary for addressing issues of patronage and friendship, literary production and consumption, and social inclusion and exclusion. Boehrer demonstrates that Jonsons own biography reflects a kind of reverse digestion: whereas his childhood home was situated over a sewage canal, his career culminated in the royal banquet hall, where his masques entertained the court during meals. From dunghill to dining hallyjonsons life was one of constant transformation. Boehrer contends that the poets preoccupation with food and digestion also reflected contemporary systems of ritual and regulation of dietary activities. Separate chapters concentrate on the protocols of dining in a culture that valued both moderation and excess; Jonsons language of table manners and its classical roots; his representation of the emergent literary profession as a digestive process; and his scatological writings, which mirrored social concern over public cleanli- I ness, waste disposal, and sanitation. In his wide-ranging examination of Jonsons plays, prose, and nondramatic verse, Boehrer discusses the sociohistorical significance of food, the politics of conspicuous consumption, the infrastructure of Jacobean London, and pertinent aspects of Renaissance medical practice and physiological theory. The Fury of Mens Gullets uniquely interprets Jonsons | construction of early modern English literary sensibility.
