Reviews
"An interesting and effective contribution to the poetics of dissent. . . . This book shows the centrality of theatrical ideas and metaphors to extremist religious writers of the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance."--David Bevington
"Kendall rightly argues for the continuity of a native literary tradition . . . into the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, notably in the plain-style writings of early Protestants and later Puritans."--John N. King, Bates College
