It contains 68 entries, ranging from acrostic' to vulgar language, ' and from one paragraph to ten pages, defining literary terms (genres, verse forms, and other verbal conventions) as they were used in the Renaissance. . . .

The first lists modern literary terms matched with relevant essays on Renaissance terms. . . . The second appendix provides a useful list of categories for the particular terms under consideration. . . . The index is meticulous and detailed, with ample cross-referencing and careful subdivisions of topics. . . . The Dictionary can be of both use and delight to the researcher in Renaissance literature. Accurate and thorough in its scholarship, lucid and concrete in its style, it is one of those rare reference works that can be actually read, not merely referred to.
