- Additional information
- This is a co-edited essay collection of approx. 100,000 words, featuring 10 chapters, an introduction, and a foreword. As co-editor I had joint and equal responsibility for the conception of the volume and the management of its progress, including commissioning, editing, and proofreading across the book. I wrote an original 8000-word chapter myself. This dealt with the circulation of John Donne’s Satyres as manuscript booklets; it was based on seven years’ research in multiple archives and produced the first reconstruction of missing pages in a damaged copy of this text in the Conway Papers. With co-editor Joshua Eckhardt, I co-authored an 8000-word introduction, the first attempt to track the early modern and modern use of the word ‘miscellany’ as a term to describe a kind of textual compilation.
