- Fulke Greville and the Literary Culture of the Reformation is a 180.000-words, 385- page edited collection containing 17 chapters by leading scholars in Renaissance literary studies from the US, the UK and Continental Europe. Sierhuis was one of the three co-editors who funded and organized the conference out of which the volume arose, conceived the volume, proposed it to the press, commissioned additional contributors, maintained contact with the press’ editors, and co-wrote the introduction in collaboration with Russ Leo. The three editors equally shared responsibility for the editing of contributions, which were peer-reviewed by two reviewers, and went through two separate stages of revision. The editors also shared the responsibility for copy-editing. The volume, which took 5 years to produce, offers a substantial revision of the traditional accounts Fulke Greville’s life, literary patronage and posthumous influence, as well as highlighting the richness and diversity of his oeuvre, which ranges from courtly and spiritual poetry to biography and autobiography, drama and philosophical investigation. Sierhuis’ own contribution comprises a 7.000 words chapter which creates links between Greville’s poetics and religious ideas by examining the movement between imagination, idolatry and iconoclasm in the erotic poems of the sonnet-sequence Caelica.
