Style : essays on renaissance and restoration language and culture in memory of Harriet Hawkins

"Style is central to our conception of the Renaissance, but it has seldom been written about apart from studies of formal rhetoric and the graphic arts. These essays demonstrate that style is a fertile juncture of literature, culture, politics, fashion, history, science, theology, and genre."
