Acknowledgments
In writing this book I was fortunate to have had the help and criticism of many scholars, too many to cite individually here but present in the annotations. At my own university I wish to thank especially Professors Edward W. Said, John D. Rosenberg, Howard H. Schless, and Professor Emeritus Carl Woodring. Professor Hans Aarsleff of Princeton University and Professor Emeritus Norman H. MacKenzie of Queen's University, Ontario, have been extraordinarily generous in offering close critical readings of the manuscript, in encouraging my work, and in sharing with me the learning of their lifelong scholarship.
Without the efficient assistance of the staffs of the New York Public Library, the Butler Library at Columbia University, Barnard's own Wollman Library, the library of the Taylorian Institution and the Bodleian Library in Oxford, my research would have made little headway. To these I express my gratitude. The archivists of the Bodleian in particular offered indispensable assistance.
To Barnard College, which voted me a grant to ready the manuscript for publication; to Ms. Stephanie Coen, my apparently tireless assistant during the summer and fall of 1988; to Ms. Eleanor Wedge, whose expert copyediting has made this a better book; to Mr. Robert S. Phillips of Southern Illinois University Press; and to the collegial support of my department I am glad to acknowledge here my debt.
I have at last an opportunity to express thanks to three teachers who had nothing directly to do with the present work but whose influence was present to me in the writing of it: Professor Emeritus John C. Pope, who introduced me to Germanic philology; Professor Mark Rose; and the late Professor William K. Wimsatt, Jr., whose instruction I came fully to appreciate long after it was given me.
