Synopsis

“Here is a claim of interdisciplinarity which has real foundation. . . . [Emblematica] contains heartening readings and decodings, all demonstrating that such reading and decoding of the early modern world is still possible for scholars who are prepared to take the trouble. Perhaps most important of all, there is a palpable sense of delight in the journal — delight in research and delight in the ingenuity and beauty of what is being studied.” —Peter Davidson, Times Literary Supplement
