Auerbach's Renaissance. Rebirths of an Aesthetic from Shakespeare to Ferrante, Hardback/Chris (University of Toronto) Warley

Auerbach's reading of Renaissance writing presents a challenge to the pessimism of today, and in Mimesis he reveals democratic possibility through such writers as Dante, Rabelais, Montaigne, and Shakespeare. Christopher Warley rediscovers the powerful beauty of this major critical work and shows its vitality for contemporary literary criticism.
