The best Web sites and print resources have been carefully selected to represent important writers of the English Renaissance.
This latest addition to the Undergraduate Companion Series confirms that the literature of Renaissance England is alive and well in the new millennium, presenting undergraduate students with an abundance of important resources necessary for 21st-century literary research. The most authoritative, informative, and useful Web sites and print resources have been carefully selected to represent important writers of the English Renaissance, including figures in religion, philosophy, and political history who are not strictly literary, such as Thomas Hobbes and Queen Elizabeth I.
