Textual Respect and Situated Readings of Spenser, Shakespeare, and Donne. Essays in Honor of Judith H. Anderson - Tamara A. Goeglein;Jennifer C. Vaught

The original essays in this collection extend the reach and relevance of Judith H. Anderson’s scholarship. The distinguished contributors situate their close readings of Spenser, Shakespeare, and Donne in the cultural weight of single words; in matters of mythic space and messianic time; and in the limits of surface reading, mimesis, dramatic character, and figures like the non sequitur. Their methods—computational, rhetorical, intertextual— pursue questions central to narrative, postcritical, and feminist theories.
