A book on early sixteenth century poetry is now being written by W. H. Wells '27, tutor in the English department. In his study, Wells proposes the new idea that the Renaissance was latent in the poetry of this period, which heretofore has been considered as strictly mediaeval.
During the course of this research in England, which was undertaken last spring under the auspices of the Milton fund, Wells brought to light some new biographical data. The principal poets treated in the work are Skelton, Barelay, Hawes, and Stephen.
The findings of this research, which was carried on under the direction of John Livingston Lowes '05, professor of English, will be published partially in England in the spring, and will be brought out in complete form in the United States next fall.
