About the Author
Anne Vaughan Lock (ca. 1534-after 1590) was an English writer and reformer. Susan M. Felch is professor emerita of English at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She is the author or editor of more than a dozen books, including the standard critical edition of Lock's works, The Collected Works of Anne Vaughan Lock.
Reviews
"Felch's comprehensive, detailed, and thoughtfully designed edition is everything that Anne Lock deserves, and that scholars could hope for, providing extensive background essays, contextual primary materials, and modernized texts with explanatory notes. . . . The texts and headnotes amount to a detailed history of sixteenth-century English radical Protestantism and a guide to the traces of theological resistance in heavily censored printed texts and fragmentary surviving manuscripts. A valuable addition to studies of early modern women, this work will change how Anne Lock is perceived among scholars and how widely she is read." -- Mary Trull, St. Olaf College
