30 years ago in graduate school!"--Toni A.H. McNaron, University of
Minnesota
"Woods's deeply knowledgeable and sensitive editing brings the
powerfully revisionary poetry of Aemilia Lanyer to us in an
authoritative edition. This is a feminist collaboration, across the
centuries, of the highest order."--Janel Mueller, University of
Chicago
"It's wonderful to have Lanyer in a decent paperback edition. Like
the Chudleigh volume, it's a great contribution to Renaissance
classes."--Byron Nelson, West Virginia University

"I am delighted that this book is finally out....It is a fine
edition, which should prove accessible to my undergraduates as well
as graduate students."--Achsah Guibbory, University of Illinois,
Urbana
Praise for the series: "Publishing these previously unknown or
ignored volumes by women will revolutionize the canon of English
and American literature taught in graduate and undergraduate
courses. The list of texts is impressive. It includes some of the
most important scholarship now under way in the field of
Renaissance literature."--Margaret Hannay, Siena College
"Making these writers available in an easily accessible form
contributes significantly not only to feminist scholarship, which
has been seeking to recover the works of such writers for two
decades, but also to teaching and scholarship more generally within
the humanities, from the freshman level to the most specialized
postgraduate level."--Marlon Ross, University of Michigan
"The texts chosen form an extremely interesting and quite varied
group, and the prospect of having them in book form is exciting.
Scholars and students will be much richer for it."--Carolyn
Dinshaw, University of California, Berkeley
"The edition...fulfills the goals of the Brown University Women
Writers Project and sets a standard for others in this
series....Every sort of library with academic inclinations should
invest in this series and purchase this book."--Sixteenth Century
Journal

accessible, and affordable text."--Dr. K. Blumreich, Grand Valley
State University
"Excellent text and presentation."--James Livingston, Northern
Michigan University
"The introduction is informative and well documented. The notes and
glosses throughout will be of vast benefit to my students."--Dr.
Judy White, Morgan State University

exemplary....The Poems of Aemilia Lanyer is a welcome addition to
the growing collection of works in the "Women Writers in English

apparatus...an informative introduction and fine
