- Summary:
- An overview and analysis of the 16th-century English poet in which the author finds Wyatt to be a far more interesting figure than biographers have previously considered him--a courtier who fought ceaselessly to remain "radiantly autonomous." She shows how he was much less the puppet of his time and place in the world than many have thought. And she counters feminist criticism of Wyatt's work by finding that the female figures in his poetry seem to be in command, albeit under the surface. Szalay is a teacher of English studies in Hungary. Her study lists works cited but has no index. Distributed by ISBS. c. Book News Inc.
