"Analytical and personal, this book appeals to its readers' emotions even as it engages their critical intelligence. It also breathes new life into some of the older, but still crucial, conventions of literary history."--Ronald Levao, author of "Renaissance Minds and Their Fictions" "Loaded with fresh and sometimes startling insights, and it is bracingly skeptical of reigning New Historicist certainties about the hegemonic Christianity of the English Renaissance."--Christopher Hodgkins, "George Herbert Journal"
