Reviews

The authors are up-to-date without being merely trendy; they avoid buzz-words and mystical terminology, and they bring literary theory directly to bear on their chosen literature, stepping directly into the plays and relegating critics almost exclusively to the footnotes. (Linda Woodbridge, University of Alberta at Edmonton) Renaissance drama is a well defined and widely taught area of literary studies. Although there are numerous scholarly books in this field, there is none that I know which has the distinctly instructional bias of this one. While designed for use with a class, however, it is sound in its theory and intelligent in the reading of individual plays. (S.K. Heninger, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill)
