Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Following the success in paperback of William Empson's Essays on Shakespeare (1986), this first volume of his Essays on Renaissance Literature (1993) now appears in an accessible format. The volume gathers Empson's passionate and controversial essays on John Donne in the context of contemporary s…cience, and includes previously unpublished pieces on some of the most influential Renaissance writers and scientists. Edited and introduced by leading Empson scholar John Haffenden, this is a book for anyone interested in the Renaissance, the history of science, and the history of literary criticism. 'Some of these passages have a sweep as grand as Empson found in Donne.' Eric Griffiths, The Times Literary Supplement 'Empson's achievement here as elsewhere comes from the generosity of spirit which made him consistently a great critic.' The New York Review of Books. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Softcover. Condition: Good. No markings, annotations, or inscriptions. (PLEASE NOTE: this is not strictly the case; there are a few pencil markings in the text, but these are vanishingly rare (approx. 6 pages, as counted), and the majority (underlinings in 'Death and Its Desires') are almost imperceptible.) Well tanned page bloc…k, with some sporadic foxing and markings to the edges. The cover remains tight and robust, but with some rubbing to the corners and the spine ends, and with a not very conspicuous crease running lengthwise down the front centre. There is no creasing to the spine. Thus: visibly shelf aged, lightly used, but constituting a good reading or study copy, with a clean text throughout. Edited with an Introduction by John Haffenden. ix, 557pp. (A compendious collection of William Empson's essays in literary criticism and theory, with a substantial Introduction by John Haffenden, author of an acclaimed two-volume biography of Empson.).
