Preface The Tudor Authors Index
ALAN HAGER is Associate Professor of English at the State University of New York College at Cortland. His books include Dazzling Images: The Masks of Sir Philip Sidney (1991) and Shakespeare's Political Animal: Schema and Schemata in the Canon (1990), and his many articles have appeared in journals such as ELH, Machiavelli Studies, and Studies in English Literature.
"Alan Hager has put together a rich sourcebook on biographical and
bibliographical materials needed for an understanding of the
Renaissance. The wealth of figures represented--Aretino, Bacon,
Castiglione, Erasmus, Gascoigne, Hoby, Puttenham, Tyndale, and many
others--attests to the variety and accomplishment of the period,
while the equally rich assortment of scholars assembled here gives
lively testimony to the healthy and interdisciplinary state of
Renaissance studies. This is a handy and elegant book."-David
