Original linen. Condición: Gut. XXIV, 216 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Slightly rubbed binding with very faint staining, small pencil marking on mock title, otherwise very good and clean. / Leicht beriebener Einband mit sehr schwachen Verschmutzungen, kleine Bleistiftanmerkung auf Schmutztitel, sonst sehr gut und sauber. - Samuel Johnson declared that biography was the most useful of the arts, because it can be applied most readily to an understanding of life. He agreed with his own forebears, our earliest literary historians, the dusty scholars who were the first to make a study of English literature: Thomas Fuller, Gerard Langbaine, Anthony Wood, William Oldys, and their colleagues, were all convinced that knowledge of a writers lifepattern, all the things he did with his life, illuminated his canon. They believed that no single poem or play can be understood without reference to all the writers other works in their social context. Further, they thought it useful to know who his friends and colleagues were, what they did, and what they shared with him. This principle is particularly important in understanding the English Renaissance when writers - particularly poets and dramatists - worked in literary groups, their poems written in competitive rivalries, their plays written in collaboration, with the result that individual works were seldom isolated artefacts and more usually items flowing in a communal river, understandable best when we can identify the themes and currents that set them afloat.
