Item description from seller

New York. 1975. Crowell. 1st Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0690226616. 468 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Judith Woracek Barry. keywords: Europe England Literary Criticism. DESCRIPTION - This is the first comprehensive, alphabetically arranged guide to the richly varied literature of the most fertile period in our literary heritage - the Renaissance in England. The handbook contains more than five hundred entries for writers from about the time of Sir Thomas More to that of John Milton, and for all significant plays, poems, essays. fiction. and prose tracts. The articles for particular subjects are supplemented by entries covering broad topics such as literary schools and movements (Cavalier poets. Caroline drama, metaphysical poets), important genres (the sonnet, Senecan tragedy, biography, satire. literary criticism. the essay), literary bypaths (broadside ballads, translations. emblem books. characters, inkhorn terms. jestbooks), and cultural subjects that have special relevance to literature (Puritanism. inns of court, alchemy). An entry for a writer contains basic biographical details, a discussion of artistic development as reflected in principal writings (with cross-references to those works important enough to have entries of their own), and an estimate of the author's accomplishments and influence. The entry closes with a selected bibliography of the most significant critical biographies and the most useful editions of complete works, if any. An article for a work offers concise information about composition, dating, the genre to which it belongs, and, when appropriate, its sources. Either a prEcis or a detailed synopsis of the work follows, and the style and significance of the work are discussed. The most important editions of the work are given in a bibliography that also includes a selection of notable critical writing about it. CROWELL'S HANDBOOK OF ELIZABETHAN AND STUART LITERATURE is an authoritative, reliable, and wide-ranging guide to the diverse, complex strands of the literature of Renaissance England. Its wealth of basic information makes it an indispensable reference tool for students of the period; its eminently readable articles make it a book to be enjoyed at leisure by all lovers of literature. inventory #6373.
