Like Angels from a Cloud. The English Metaphysical Preachers 1588-1645

Renaissance et Réforme / 153 (xxi)."Altogether, then, the structure imposed by Kohl on his listing is ra- tional and even instructive in itself.There is very little else in the book besides the actual bibliographical entries.There is a short introduction containing an extremely brief and schematic definition and history of humanism and the criteria for the use of the listings.Each chapter has a paragraph -at most two -by way of introduction and description.And there are the two very well organized indices.The book strives ambitiously to be a complete listing of materials in English up to the early 1980's, with the exception of reviews and unpublished dis- sertations.And Kohl has succeeded remarkably in this stupendous task.Of course, any specialist willing to do further work can find omissions (for ex- ample, I note that History of Education does not appear among the 60 jour- nals surveyed, despite its publication of articles on humanism and education;Renaissance and Reformation, though, is included).This is not the point to stress, however.Rather Benjamin Kohl should be applauded for providing a wonderful tool for students and teachers of Renaissance studies
