"Stephen Greenblatt daringly takes us beyond the text of several of the giants of the English Renaissance, exploring the context that informed their works and lives. Highly speculative, but always plausible, the work ranges from St. Thomas More, through Tyndale, Marlowe, Spenser, and, yes, Shakespear, taking in along the way such diverse topics as the politics of Elizabethan homosexuality and the early stirrings of the colonialist ethic. This book is indispensible to anyone with even a passing interest in these great writers, or in the culture through which they moved."
