- W4312573065 abstract "Abstract This chapter interprets Jonson’s depictions of elite London society through the lens of Robert Greene’s popular tales of urban con artists and seductresses. I show that Sir Dauphine Eugenie and Mistress Epicoene’s efforts to fleece Dauphine’s rich uncle have surprising affinities with a sexual extortion scheme, called “cross-biting,” which sometimes was thought to involve boy actors. Cross-biting injects their partnership with the sexual energy and economic competitiveness characteristic of partnerships between pimps and their whores and ingles, or female and male prostitutes. The scheme turns the play into a contest between emergent models of urban masculinity and femininity, one that can be resolved only by revealing that Epicoene is a loyal, cross-dressed boy servant. The play’s concluding metatheatrical flourish, in which Epicoene’s newly revealed male gender and the apprentice actor’s supposedly real masculine gender are conflated, transforms the sex/gender codes of the debased criminal underclass, allowing them to participate in the contemporary cultural construction of new forms of elite masculinity and social capital." @default.
