Sexual types on the early modern stage are at once strange and familiar, associated with a range of "unnatural" or "monstrous" sexual and gender practices, yet familiar because readily identifiable as types: recognizable figures of literary imagination and social fantasy. From the many found in early modern culture, Mario DiGangi here focuses on six types that reveal in particularly compelling ways, both individually and collectively, how sexual transgressions were understood to intersect with social, gender, economic, and political transgressions.Building on feminist and queer scholarship, Sexual Types demonstrates how the sodomite, the tribade (a woman-loving woman), the narcissistic courtier, the citizen wife, the bawd, and the court favorite function as sites of ideological contradiction in dramatic texts. On the one hand, these sexual types are vilified and disciplined for violating social and sexual norms; on the other hand, they can take the form of dynamic, resourceful characters who expose the limitations of the categories that attempt to define and contain them. In bringing sexuality and character studies into conjunction with one another, Sexual Types provides illuminating new readings of familiar plays, such as Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Winter's Tale, and of lesser-known plays by Fletcher, Middleton, and Shirley.

"Dans un article de 1830 de la Revue de Paris, Charles Nodier écrit que l'auteur de génie est "celui dont les personnages deviennent des types dans toutes les littératures". C'est ainsi que Balzac a créé Rastignac et Victor Hugo Gavroche. Au même moment, les caricaturistes Traviès, Monnier et Daumier créent, dans leurs dessins de presse, les types de M. Mahieux, M. Prudhomme et Robert Macaire. Cette notion de "type", née dans les années 1820 pour désigner un personnage littéraire ou un personnage de caricature exemplaire, connaîtra un immense succès tout au long du siècle. Ce livre montre ce que signifie un "type", en s'appuyant sur un vaste corpus de romans de la monarchie de Juillet et sur l'étude des caricatures de presse de la période."-- Page 4 of cover
