Ryan Curtis Friesen is an associate lecturer in English at the University of Wisconsin–LaCrosse who has written about the supernatural as a literary theme in the fiction of England and the United States.
“The volume exemplifies new-historicist interpretive practice at its best. Dr. Friesen’s treatment of the occult and its place in early modern culture is simply brilliant and his particular analyses of how cultural discourses on the occult impact and are impacted by aesthetic form in plays by Marlowe, Shakespeare, Middleton and Ben Jonson, are thoroughly illuminating. . . . [It] will be appealing not only to students and scholars in English, but to everyone who is interested in the occult and its discursive function in a society.” —Lalita P. Hogan, author, Comparative Poetics: Non-Western Traditions of Literary Theory
“Shrewdly engages the topic of early modern magic as it shapes and takes shape in a series of representations both nonfictional.” —David Houston Wood, author, Time, Narrative, and Emotion in Early Modern England
