Vulgar Eloquence: On the Renaissance Invention of English Literature

Exploring the myths through which poets such as Geoffrey Whitney, William Shakespeare, and John Milton understood the nature of their art, the author shows how they invented archaic origins for a different kind of writing. He shows how the poets' search for a beginning drew them to rework fables about Orpheus, Philomena, and Circe.
