This stimulating volume brings together a team of highly regarded specialists to pay tribute to Dr. Peter Beal, the founding editor of English Manuscript Studies 1100–1700 and creator of Catalogue of English Literary Manuscripts 1450–1700. Contributions promote the study of the primary sources of early modern English literature, and in doing so reveal new insights into the works of Sir Philip Sidney, John Milton, and other major writers of this major but largely underappreciated area of English literary culture.
