Lindsey M. Simon-Jones Associate Professor of English

Book Title: English Dramatic Interludes 1300-1580: A Reference Guide

Author: Darryll Grantley

Selection Statement:

It took me no time at all to decide on the single most important text to my research and scholarly pursuits. Grantley’s work here is invaluable, offering a wealth of detailed information about a great number of understudied and undervalued plays. The notes on language use were particularly helpful for my research; without a doubt, my work would have been significantly more difficult if it were not for this reference text. Grantley has done a fine job of cataloging, describing, and analyzing each play; I know that future scholars of early English drama will find this text as useful as I have.
