Reviews
Thorough, penetrating, and on the cutting edge of contemporary scholarship. Essential. Choice 2008 A useful and detailed study. Dubrow is especially good at analysing the relationship between gender and genre. Times Literary Supplement 2008 Her refinement of generic oppositions... leads to some striking juxtapositions as well as-to my thinking at least-an exceptionally interesting discussion of the status and function of song in Shakespearean drama. Huntington Library Quarterly 2008 Dubrow accomplishes much in this pioneering study. Studies in English Literature Formidable exegetical skills... Dubrow's terse accounts bring great insight and illumination to the problem of defining and describing lyric poetry. Clio 2008 Includes some of her most important thinking to date about issues that are central to the study of lyric poetry in any period. Seventeenth Century News 2009 A study that is itself both challenging and gentle-in all the very best senses of that word. -- Christopher Martin Sixteenth Century Journal 2009 Her study exemplifies an ideal of informed and judicious close reading that one can only hope will prove as infectious as its author wishes it to be. -- Elizabeth Heale Modern Language Review 2009 Represents both a wide-ranging exploration of lyric poetry in the early modern period and a plea for scholars to emphasize multivalent ideas and inclusive taxonomies over hierarchical and sharply argumentative approaches. Year's Work in English Studies 2010
