About
"David M. Bergeron, one of the most renowned specialists in the world on Renaissance English civic pageantry, masques, entertainments and drama, now gives us Practicing Renaissance Scholarship. This book is a collection of 11 essays that focus on the plight of the humanist scholar at the beginning of the new century, arguing for an attitude of "interrogative metonymy" - that is, a kind of collegiality among scholars with an insistent questioning of transmitted knowledge. From original archival research, to analyzing what centuries of thinkers have written, to exposing reductive ideology, the essays revolve around the twin poles of evidence and interpretation."--BOOK JACKET.
