Neither the project nor the conference could have happened withoutthegeneroussupportoftheLeverhulmeTrust.Theconference further benefited from financial support from the Modern Humanities ResearchAssociation,theSocietyforRenaissanceStudies,andNewcastle University. I am grateful to all participants at the conference for making it an enjoyable and intellectually stimulating experience. I would in par- ticular like to thank the speakers, who included, in addition to the contributorstothisvolume,SarahDewar-Watson,MassimilianoMorini, NeilRhodes,andSusannadeSchepper,andthechairs,KateChedgzoy, Mike Pincombe, and Jennifer Richards. Thanks are also due to the School of English at Newcastle University for providing a congenial environmentfortheprojectandtheconference. The contributors to this volume have been all an editor could ask for – prompt, helpful, and patient in response to suggestions – and I am grateful to them for putting their knowledge and expertise at my disposal. The General Editors of the series, Cedric Brown and Andrew Hadfield,puttheirfaithinthisvolumeandmyeditorsatPalgravewere both patient and efficient. I would like to thank Alan Bryson, Mike Pincombe, Neil Rhodes, Jennifer Richards, and William Sherman for theircommentsonmycontributionstothevolume.
