"WOMEN'S WORKS ... manages to make immensely difficult labor look
like the most natural outgrowth of intellectual engagement with a
problem - not easy but the product of worthwhile effort. In
addition to providing the basic documents of a virtually unknown
canon, the typescript of this anthology incorporates some of the
most useful innovations I've ever seen in the publication of
medieval and Renaissance literary texts....Foster has a fine ear,
and his edition repeatedly encourages its readers to hear the
poems. He builds into his edition many devices to heighten a
reader's awareness of the poem as a performed and experienced
event. All editions should do these things, but very few manage
even the most basic. Because he has mastered all the traditional
editorial and literary skills and fused them with a craftsman's
management of desktop publishing technology, Foster has engineered
a graceful escalation of the values and esthetics of literature
courses. I expect that future editors will adopt them as models."
