The Reader Over Your Shoulder - A Handbook for Writers of English ProseThe Reader Over Your Shoulder - A Handbook for Writers of English Prose

It's too bad that this very funny book is no longer widely distributed. I suppose publishers fear Robert Graves' irony, sarcasm, and scorn does not send a peppy message to aspiring writers. No matter. In this "take no prisoners" handbook, passages written by Churchill, John Maynard Keynes, and even religious leaders are dissected and openly mocked. It's a wonderful sight to behold.

Women, Murder and Equity in Early Modern EnglandWomen, Murder and Equity in Early Modern England

This book presents the first comprehensive study of over 120 printed news reports of murders and infanticides committed by early modern women. It offers an interdisciplinary analysis of female homicide in post-Reformation news formats ranging from ballads to newspapers. Individual cases are illuminated in relation to changing legal, religious, and political contexts, as well as the dynamic growth of commercial crime-news and readership.

Italian Reform and English Reformations, c.1535-c.1585Italian Reform and English Reformations, c.1535-c.1585

This is the first full-scale study of interactions between Italy's religious reform and English reformations, which were notoriously liable to pick up other people's ideas. The book is of fundamental importance for those whose work includes revisionist themes of ambiguity, opportunism and interdependence in sixteenth century religious change.
