| Sommario/riassunto: | Early modern English literature abounds with archaeological images, from open graves to ruined monasteries. Showing that archaeology can shed light on literary texts, including works by Shakespeare and Donne, the book explores the kinship between two disciplines distinguished by their intimacy with traces of past life. |
