Thesis (Ph.D.)--The George Washington University, 2006.

Focusing on the early Stuart discourse surrounding procreation and nurture, my dissertation investigates various discursive productions of fatherhood and their significations within the body politic. Recognizing procreation as a foundational early modern trope, a number of recent studies have been devoted to the topic of early modern depictions of deviant reproduction, focusing predominantly on maternal bodies. Not all nurture, however, was coded as deviant. My dissertation takes as its starting point the construction of benevolent nurture and finds a space for men within the reproductive paradigm. Significant to their production and dissemination of political power, James I and his son, Charles, recognized the symbolic value of procreation and attempted to shape it to their benefit. Father and son built their desired position of absolute monarchy, in part, through producing images of masculine fertility and paternal benevolence. Integral to my project is the examination of how and to what end the male body, patterned on the monarch's body, co-opted reproduction for itself. In image and word, male bodies were displayed as possessing the female functions of birth and nurture while excluding the malignity that had been so successfully placed on women's bodies. James' language and policies insistently situated the male monarchical body, and by extension all appropriate male bodies, as a hybrid entity. Through its more successful deployment by James to its discursive breakdown during the reign of Charles, I analyze the symbolic function of benevolent paternal reproduction and its effect on shifting Stuart political representations and positions. Employing sources as diverse as witch pamphlets, Shakespeare's Jacobean Roman plays, James's and Charles' public and private writing, and John Ford's incest drama, my dissertation charts the course early Stuart representations and disseminations of a politics based in specifically masculine form of nurture.
