John Foxe and his World: St Andrews Studies in Reformation History

Autor Christopher Highley, John N. King

Recenzii

'... an excellent statement of the status quaestionis and a mine of information not only in the text but in the copious notes which include many references to books, articles and upublished theses.' Recusant History '... both passionate and thought-provoking... subtle and refreshing... extremely useful...' Ecclesiastical History '... insightful, informative... essential reading for anyone working on early modern martyrdom, Reformation culture and/or print history.' Dutch Review of Church History '... a valuable addition to the corpus of literature on Foxe and his age.' Sixteenth Century Journal '... consistently strong and insightful throughout, as its authors utlize emerging understandings of Foxe to explore new paths of research, or to reconsider traditional interpretations of well-known subjects...' Renaissance Quarterly '... a valuable addition to Ashgate's growing catalogue of volumes devoted to collected essays on Reformation topics.' Literature & History 'This collection of innovative essays and powerful images is essential reading for literacy and historical scholars.' Early Modern Literary Studies
