Reviews
"The Memory Arts in Renaissance England represents a great leap forward for early modern memory studies, and is an invaluable resource for scholars and students of memory and mnemonics across fields and periods. What Engel, Loughnane, and Williams convey in their superb introduction and throughout this comprehensive collection is the range and possibility of the memory arts, which includes rhetoric and poetics, education and science, history and philosophy, religion and devotion, and all genres of literature. This important and timely anthology provides the most complete picture of the Renaissance memory arts to date, and thus makes a significant contribution to the evolving and interdisciplinary field of memory studies."
