Acknowledgements
In addition to student authors, we owe a debt of gratitude to Carrie Gits, an Austin Community College librarian, D.J. Kingdon who wrote the introductory chapters to each major historical period, and Theresa Foster, one of the student authors who went on to help edit the collection as a whole. We also wish to acknowledge a number of sites from which we have used both primary source and secondary source material that is included in this book. Sources are acknowledged in the individual chapters, but I want to especially thank the individuals and institutions who created:
The Folger Shakespeare Library
Renascence Editions (Luminarium)
Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia
Without these resources, this book would have been impossible.
