Reevaluates early modern poems of praise as, paradoxically, challenging an artistic economy that values exchange and productivity. Explores how poems of praise imagine alternatives to market and gift economies and point instead to a self-contained aesthetic economy that works against a more expansive and productivist understanding of literary art.
