Review

“Christopher Pye’s elegantly written and argued The Vanishing is a terrific book. It could by itself renew interest in the merits and possibilities of psychoanalytic theory not only for reading early modern culture but for literary studies more generally.”— Karen Newman, author of Fashioning Femininity and English Renaissance Drama

“Pye moves with great concision, delivering dazzling insights and startling conjunctions. The Vanishing thus makes an important intervention in early modern studies, recalling the promise of ‘theory’ to advance our understanding of questions of history and representation.”—Jonathan Goldberg, author of Desiring Women Writing: English Renaissance Examples
