Description: want to begin by rehearsing a story about Mary Wroth’s publication of Urania that will be familiar to many people, but that I recount here in order to set the scene for an analysis of the circulation and recirculation of her vituperative poetic exchange with Edward Denny. Among a number of thinly veiled depictions of Jacobean court scandals in Urania, Wroth gave an account of the violent responses of Edward Denny to accusations that his daughter Honora, married to James Hay, Viscount Carlisle, had committed adultery. In the romance, Denny, who is portrayed as the father of Seralius’s wife, reacts even more furiously to the suspicion (not justified, as the romance has it) than his son-in-law.
