Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:Books that originate in a PhD dissertation are often dull. Not so in this case, which is a clear, thorough and intelligent study of some 20 Protestant (or anti-Catholic) dialogues from the 16th century. The central argument is that a literary approach is more revealing than a historian’s. The genre has indeed been studied before by those looking for examples of theological disputes or wider evangelical attitudes. Historians have treated the characters in the dialogues as if they were true-to-life types to be found in any Elizabethan village.
