Robert Burton on the Melancholic Plague
This book presents an innovative perspective on the melancholic character of English divine, writer and academic Robert Burton (1577–1640) and how it shaped his confrontations with political and academic powers. Delving on his historical context, personal struggles and earlier literary pieces, this enquiry provides a new reading of The Anatomy of Melancholy, revealing its deeper purposes and how these prefigure the tensions at the heart of modern discourses—therapeutic, political, and economic.

London Spirits
Anyone who has walked the streets of London knows how profoundly history haunts the city. From its monuments and memorials to its blue-circled plaques, London wears the past with style, decorum, and a certain spirit. London Spirits pays homage to this spirit using narrators (some dead, some alive; some historical, some fictional) who have a particularly interesting story to tell about their life and times in this great metropolis. There’s Philip Clark, plumber to Westminster Abbey, who recounts a “cock-eyed” version of William and Mary’s Coronation in 1689. There’s Virginia Woolf who takes one last walk through Regent’s Park in her waning days and revisits her past with powerful ...
