요약World-Remaking Experiments in Seventeenth-Century English Literature argues that early modern writers respond to epistemological and theological instabilities by developing textual practices that revise or reconfigure the conditions of inhabiting a world marked by uncertainty and failure. Drawing on posthumanism, queer theory, critical race theory, game theory, and art history, this dissertation shows how writers across the 17th century craft literary worlds, in which failure enables new cosmopoetic possibilities. Chapter 1 reads John Donne's Metempsychosis as staging permutations of parasitic logic. The text's deliberately incomplete cosmology transforms ontological limits into species of world-remaking, rather than failures of knowledge. Chapter 2 examines Andrew Marvell's "Upon Appleton House," arguing that its recursive, queer, and often contradictory cosmopoiesis operates through modes of insufficiency, which remake the topographical poem into a dynamic site of historical experimentation. Chapter 3 turns to Margaret Cavendish's The Blazing World, showing how its queer whiteness and double focalization produce a speculative world, wherein racialized and gendered formations are unsettled and reimagined. Chapter 4 explores William Shakespeare's Measure for Measure, whose juridical and narrative contingency expose deontological failure at the heart of political authority, prompting alternative forms of ethical world-remaking. Chapter 5 argues that John Milton's Paradise Lost offers a cosmopoetic model grounded in narrative gaps, interpretive ambiguities, and divergent visual traditions-including 19th-century illustrations of the epic's conclusion. Across these case studies, this dissertation demonstrates that early modern literature does not mourn the collapsing fantasies of epistemic mastery and totalizing truth, but turns instead toward modes of provisional, experimental, and self-consciously insufficient world-remaking. This project thus reframes 17th-century English texts as sustained meditations on how worlds can and must be continually remade in the wake of failure.
