Tragicomedy is one of the most important dramatic genres in Renaissance literature, and the essays collected here offer stimulating new perspectives and insights, as well as providing broad introductions to arguably lesser-known European texts.
This is an introduction to linguistics, the study of human language. The author offers a succinct but lucid outline of the methods in which language has been defined, described, and explored, and guides readers towards further exploration of their own.

Ancient Epic (Blackwell Introductions to the Classical World)
Written primarily for scholars and students, Ancient Epic is nonetheless a thoroughly enjoyable and informative read for those who know little about the old human stories that undergird our Western literature and culture. The introduction provided a beautiful overview of how these six epics related to each other and how they can have high meaning for us today. King has a way of describing the people and events that makes them identifiable and memorable. I was surprised to find myself reading the book as I read a mystery--turning pages to find out what happened next. A good read!
