Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Review:
of wide reading and careful thought, and it clearly merits both in return."--Sixteenth Century Journal
"There is far more in this astonishingly rich book than I can possibly rehearse here, and I can only point to a reading of Mac Flecknoe in full awareness of its scribal publication....A memorable put-down of Jonathan Goldberg, some dazzling pages on `Swift, Script and Print', and some new and
persuasive reflections on `Editing Scribally Published Texts'. Scribal publication was the preferred form of publication for Donne, King, Carew, Marvell, Rochester, and Dorset. This learned book will encourage scholars to be more aware of the practice."--Modern Language Review
"The modesty of Harold Love's title does not fully prepare the reader for the riches of this book."--Bibliographical Society of America
"Scribal Publication in Seventeenth-Century England does what most scholars wish they could and what few actually accomplish. By envisioning manuscript artifacts not as grist for print editions but rather as evidence of past activity, Love opens up a new arena for inquiry."--Early Modern "Literary
Studies
"Engaging and informative, an important reference work for almost anyone who takes up scholarly research in the field....Scribal Publications ought to attract a great deal of exciting new scholarship in the theory and practice of manuscript production and transmission."--Seventeenth-Century News
