“An exciting collection of essays on English Renaissance literature and culture, this book contributes substantially to the contemporary renaissance in historical modes of critical inquiry.”
“Representing the English Renaissance lets us see our own postmodern cultural practices refracted through those of the Renaissance, and, humanistically enough, it also helps us understand aspects of early modern texts and cultures that resonate in an age of television.”
“Exciting, incisive, clear and pleasurable to read, the essays Greenblatt has assembled here reveal the benefits of theory, scientific method, and lively imagination when attempting to recapture dilemmas and representations of an earlier epoch.”
“Stephen Greenblatt is one the finest scholars of Renaissance literature active today.”
