Renaissance genres : essays on theory, history, and interpretation

Genre studies are flourishing, nowhere more vigorously than in the field of Renaissance literature, given the importance to Renaissance writers of questions of genre. The 18 essays in this volume are striking in their diversity of stance and approach. Three are addressed to genre theory explicitly, and all reveal a concern with theoretical issues.
