Scenes of Instruction in Renaissance Romance

Explores how poets reacted to the authority of humanist pedagogy, and how they transformed a genre to express their most radical doubts. This work also investigates what it meant for a book to teach as it traces the rivalry between poet and school-master in the works of John Lyly, Philip Sydney, Edmund Spenser, and John Milton.
