Description: David, Donne, and Thirsty Deer : Selected Essays of Anne Lake Prescott, Hardcover by Prescott, Anne Lake; Oram, William A. (EDT); Kuin, Roger (EDT), ISBN 1526179385, ISBN-13 9781526179388, Brand New, Free shipping in the US For nearly half a century Anne Lake Prescott has been a force and an inspiration in Renaissance studies. A force, because of her unique blend of learning and wit and an inspiration through her tireless encouragement of younger scholars and students. Her passion has always been the invisible bridge across the Channel: the complex of relations, literary and political, between Britain and France. The essays in this long-awaited collection range from Edmund Spenser to John Donne, from Clément Marot to Pierre de Ronsard. Prescott has a particular fondness for King David, who appears several times; and the reader will encounter chessmen, bishops, male lesbian voices and Roman whores. Always Prescott’s immense erudition is accompanied by a sly and gentle wit that invites readers to share her amusement. Reading her is a joyful education.
