About Book

Book Description
A revised and enlarged edition of the treatise awarded the Harness prize at Cambridge in 1904. The eminent Elizabethan scholar discusses Lyly: (1) as a founder, if not the founder of English prose style; (b) as the author of the first novel of manners in the language; (3) and from the point of view of Elizabethan literature most important of all, as one of England's earliest dramatists, "who without doubt merits the title of Father of English Comedy."
