"Scholars of English literature in Britain and the US begin by setting the historical, literary, and cultural context of the Renaissance period, 1485 to 1639. Then they provide students with insights into how to read Renaissance texts. They cover key primary literary texts, key theoretical and critical texts, key critical concepts and topics, critical responses and approaches to British Renaissance literature, changes in the canon, and mapping the current critical landscape. An appendix on teaching, curriculum, and learning is available online." -Eithne O'Leyne, BOOK NEWS, Inc.
