Rebecca Lemon is associate professor of English at the University of Southern California, USA.
Lemon's guide displays...breadth and insight, even as it touches down on quite different categories, including the forms and features of the play in print, the discourse of conscience, the device of murder, and the array of Richards brought forth by modernity (Fascist, Libyan, Digital, and Documentary, among others). This choice for discretion over consistency in format and emphasis is no doubt a reason that the series, under the editorship of Dympna Callaghan, has attracted such excellent contributors. Its latest companions are boons for those teaching writing-intensive courses, as well as for those simply seeking better essays from their students. * Studies in English Literature 1500-1900 *
