The Anonymous Renaissance: Cultures of Discretion in Tudor-Stuart England

Abstract

when, having turned aside just a little from chronological order (for testimonies of Roman authors, edited now, and as it were, as a matter of good faith with the public, will be supplied immediately afterwards) we proceed to attach a portrait of the governance of the British commonwealth around the time of the coming of Caesar, together with the character of its princes and its philosophers.A scholar capable of translating so badly should perhaps have thought twice before writing a book on a major neo-Latin author.Reid Barbour's work is too substantial to be dismissed out of hand, but in several respects it falls short of the standards of exact and learned scholarship.
