Barbara Kiefer Lewalski Boeken

    Barbara Josephine Lewalski was een toonaangevend autoriteit op het gebied van Renaissance-literatuur en het leven van John Milton. Als emeritus hoogleraar Engelse literatuur en geschiedenis en literatuur aan de Harvard University verdiepte zij zich in de studie van teksten uit die periode en hun context. Haar werk kenmerkt zich door nauwkeurige analyse en inzicht in het denken van die tijd, waarmee ze de geest van Renaissance-Engeland dichter bij de lezers brengt. Lewalski's benadering benadrukt de ingewikkelde verbinding tussen literaire creatie en historische en culturele invloeden.
