Itineraries in French Renaissance Literature brings together a full
score of essays by established and rising American-based scholars
of the early modern. Arranged according to five themes or genres:
Tales and their Tellers, Poets and Poetry, Religious Controversy,
Montaigne, and Knowledge Networks, they offer both fresh
perspectives on canonical authors such as Marguerite de Navarre,
Rabelais, Montaigne, Marot, Labe, and Helisenne de Crenne, as well
as original interpretations of less familiar works of
sixteenth-century moment: confessional polemics, emblems,
cartography, geomancy, epigraphy, bibliophilism and even
ichthyology. Inspired by and gathered together here to honor the
eclectic career of Mary B. McKinley, this anthology integrates many
of the most pertinent topics and contemporary approaches of early
modern French scholarly inquiry. Contributors are: Pascale Barthe,
Leah L. Chang, Edwin M. Duval, Gary Ferguson, George Hoffmann,
Robert J. Hudson, Karen Simroth James, Scott D. Juall, Virginia
Krause, Kathleen Long, Stephen Murphy, Corinne Noirot, Jeff
Persels, Bernd Renner, Nicolas Russell, Nicholas Shangler, Cynthia
Skenazi, Kendall Tarte, Cara Welch, and Cathy Yandell.
