Today genre studies are flourishing, and nowhere more vigorously
perhaps than in the field of Renaissance literature, given the
importance to Renaissance writers of questions of genre. These
studies have been nourished, as Barbara Lewalski points out, by the
varied insights of contemporary literary theory. More sophisticated
conceptions of genre have led to a fuller appreciation of the
complex and flexible Renaissance uses of literary forms. The
eighteen essays in this volume are striking in their diversity of
stance and approach. Three are addressed to genre theory
explicitly, and all reveal a concern with theoretical issues. The
contributors are Earl Miner, Ann E. Imbrie, Claudio Guillen,
Alastair Fowler, Harry Levin, Morton W. Bloomfield, Mary T. Crane,
Barbara J. Bono, Janel M. Mueller, Annabel Patterson, Steven N.
Zwicker, Marjorie Garber, Robert N. Watson, John N. King, Heather
Dubrow, John Klause, James S. Baumlin, and Francis C. Blessington.
