I would also like to thank my former colleagues in early modern literary studies at the University of New Hampshire: Elizabeth Jane Bellamy, Elizabeth H. Hageman, Douglas M. Lanier, and Rachel J. Trubowitz. I owe a par- ticular debt to Jean E. Howard, a former colleague at Columbia University, for many fruitful conversations on the topic of this book over the years. I am grateful to Richard Helgerson, who read the manuscript for Palgrave and offered some indispensable suggestions about the ends of Citizen Shakespeare. And a special thanks goes to Ivo Kamps, my series editor, who saw the project through to completion from an early stage.
