Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1596, satirizes the work of a contemporary medical doctor, Gabriel Harvey, who was also a noted author and literary critic. The author, Thomas Nashe, responds to Harvey's criticism of his previous writing with a series of humorous and witty attacks on Harvey's own work. Nashe's writing is full of puns, allusions, and exaggerations, and he uses these literary devices to great effect in his mockery of Harvey. Nashe's work is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the literary culture of the Elizabethan era, and it is also a highly entertaining read for anyone interested in the history of English literature.
