Kennedy Cornell University "A collection of essays written over a distinguished critic's career..." -Studies in English Literature "Reading the Allegorical Intertext gives rich attention to its four authors-Chaucer, Spenser, Shakespeare, and Milton-although Spenser, who plays a major part in seventeen of the nineteen chapters, remains at the heart of the book." -Shakespeare Quarterly "...an impressive collection of seventeen of Judith Anderson's previously published articles..." -Renaissance Quarterly "A landmark contribution to work on the epochal transformations of medieval into Renaissance and early modern writing cultures." -- -Theresa Krier Macalester College "Exemplary.
