Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
'Marrapodi has not only gathered a well-chosen selection of scholars but has provided a critically sophisticated introductory essay, summarizing previous work without drawing too much attention, as he might have done without any argument from me, to his own earlier contributions. Che sprezzatura! It is impossible to do justice to each essay in a short review. Suffice it to say that each vein produces gold.' Renaissance Quarterly '...[I] recommend the volume to anyone interested in English Renaissance drama. Italian Culture in the Drama of Shakespeare and his Contemporary is also a welcome contribution to the growing field of transnational literary studies...' Shakespeare in Southern Africa 'This is a compendious, thought-provoking book, with arguments pushed to interesting and challenging limits.' Renaissance Studies '[This book] is a rich collection of tightly argued pieces... Ashgate is to be commended for publishing this... [it is] of a high standard and merit a wide readership.'
