Softcover. Zustand: Good. No markings, annotations, or inscriptions. (PLEASE NOTE: this is not strictly the case; there are a few pencil markings in the text, but these are vanishingly rare (approx. 6 pages, as counted), and the majority (underlinings in 'Death and Its Desires') are almost imperceptible.)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This collection of William Empson's essays on Elizabethan and Jacobean drama is the second volume of his writings on Renaissance literature.
