In this revised and greatly expanded edition of the Companion, scholars come together to offer an original and far-reaching assessment of English Renaissance literature and culture.Contributions from some 80 scholars including Judith H. Anderson, Patrick Collinson, Alison Findlay, Germaine Greer, Malcolm Jones, Arthur Kinney, James Knowles, Arthur Marotti, Robert Miola and Greg Walker. Unrivaled in scope and its exploration of unfamiliar literary and cultural territories the Companion offers new readings of both "literary"; and "non-literary" texts. Features essays discussing material culture, sectarian writing, the history of the body, theatre both in and outside the playhouses, law, gardens, and ecology in early modern England. Orients the beginning student, while providing advanced students and faculty with new directions for their research. All of the essays from the first edition, along with the recommendations for further reading, have been reworked or updated.
