312 p., index, 32 p. of plates. "In this discussion of the four major stages of Renaissance style-- Renaissance, Mannerism, Baroque, and Late Baroque-- literary criticism is closely related to the analysis of painting, sculpture, and architecture. ...In effect, the book serves as an outline of the cultural and aesthetic history of three major centuries of artistic creation and it gives new meanings to Elizabethan, 'metaphysical,' 'baroque,' and 'neo-classical' poetry and to the English and French theater of the time."
