EN2350 LOVE WARS: LITERATURE 1660-1789 ASSESSEDESSAY QUESTIONS 2022
Your essay is due in by 12 noon on 4 May 2022. Please submit one copy of your answer via
the Turnitin site on Blackboard under ‘Assessment and Feedback’ on the EN2350 page.
Answer one question. You are required to make substantial and detailed reference to the
work of at least two authors of the period: the intellectual framework of your essay and the
depth of textual analysis should reflect a substantial amount of the reading and thinking you
have done over the semester. Credit will also be given where there is evidence of an informed
engagement with scholarly editions and/or the original print and/or manuscript sources.
When a question contains a quotation or quotations, that material is an important part of the
question. To write an answer that is marked well on ‘relevance to the question’ (one of the
marking criteria), you must address the issues raised by the quotation(s), even if you choose
not to write at any length about the work from which any given quotation is taken.
References to answering on ‘the literature of the period’ mean that you should take your
examples from works written between 1660 and 1789. You do not need to cover the whole of
that period.
The word limit is 3000 words (this means you are strictly limited to 3000 words, including
footnotes but excluding the Bibliography, and must not go beyond that). You may include
images of print and/or manuscript materials where appropriate
Make sure that you understand the regulations on plagiarism and guidelines on the
presentation of work. These can be found in the English Undergraduate Programme Guide.
Remember to leave sufficient time to check you have appropriately credited all works used.
If you have questions about any of the above, please contact Shanyn Altman

1. Discuss the relationship between libertinism and class in the literature of this period.
2. ‘Libertine masculinity not only systematically dehumanizes women, it also
commodifies them, reducing the female subject to a product of limited and temporary
value’ (Andrew P. Williams). Discuss.
3. But though St. James has the honour on’t,
’Tis consecrate to Prick and Cunt. 10
There by a most incestuous birth
Strange woods spring from the teeming earth,
For they relate how heretofore,
When ancient Pict began to whore,
Deluded of his assignation 15
