Diverting Authorities examines literary experimentation in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. It looks at marginal annotations or 'glosses' provided by authors in a wide range of texts and argues that they provide important evidence for evolving ideas of authorship and literary authority.

Jane Griffiths's second collection re-imagines lives. Her poems are populated by people ranging from the invented to the mythological to the wholly real. Somewhere in between, the title-sequence recreates the life of Icarus as it might have been had he been born in modern suburban England. Through the voices of his father, his mother, his mildly inept biographer, and the girl-next-door, it explores the gap between desire and reality, and the consequences of trying to get across it. Icarus stands for the people in many of the poems, passionately concerned to test the limits of what is possible in many different kinds of flight, both literal and metaphorical. It is a book of elegies for lives not lived as well as actual lives.

John Skelton and Poetic Authority is the first book-length study of Skelton for almost twenty years, and the first to trace the roots of his poetic theory to his practice as a writer and translator. It demonstrates that much of what has been found challenging in his work may be attributed to his attempt to reconcile existing views of the poet's role in society with discoveries about the writing process itself. The result is a highly idiosyncratic poetics that locates the poet's authority decisively within his own person, yet at the same time predicates his 'liberty to speak' upon the existence of an engaged, imaginative audience. Skelton is frequently treated as a maverick, but this book places his theory and practice firmly in the context of later sixteenth as well as fifteenth-century traditions. Focusing on his relations with both past and present readers, it reassess his place in the English literary canon.

This book sheds light on the intimate relationship between built space and the mind, exploring the ways in which architecture inhabits and shapes both the memory and the imagination. Examining the role of the house, a recurrent, even haunting, image in art and literature from classical times to the present day, it includes new work by both leading scholars and early career academics, providing fresh insights into the spiritual, social, and imaginative significances of built space. Further, it reveals how engagement with both real and imagined architectural structures has long been a way of understanding the intangible workings of the mind itself.
