Just out: Cornelia Moore's latest, a study of biographical writing as presented in sixteenth and seventeenth century evangelical funeral sermons. The result of years of work at the Herzog August Bibliothek Wolfenbüttel, Moore's book defines the genre, discusses its origins and disappearances, and considers its context in noble, civic and monarchic culture.
