Sean Keilen reevaluates the emergence of English literature as a distinct category during the late Renaissance. By examining the intersection of classical rhetoric and vernacular expression, the author demonstrates how early modern writers navigated the tension between high-culture standards and the perceived vulgarity of the common tongue.
