Pressezitat
Praise for Skepticism and Memory in Shakespeare and Donne'An elegantly conceived and probing study. Written with verve and clarity, this book takes up a thread of thinking in recent criticism about skeptical modalities in Renaissance literature, in particular, skepticism's formal modes and masks. Within the field defined by the interlocking themes of skepticism and memory, it places in dialogue the pair of Shakespeare and Donne - two central Renaissance authors very rarely studied together - and makes a strong contribution.'; Kenneth Gross, University of Rochester, USA, Author of Shylock is Shakespeare and Shakespeare's Noise
'...Anita Gilman Sherman tackles this well-worn subject in fresh and innovative ways.' - Modern Philology
