Praise for Kiernan's Shakespeare: Poet and Citizen: ""Victor Kiernan is one of the best historians of seventeenth-century England, and he is also a sensitive literary critic. The combination of these gifts make this book a remarkable achievement. It will become a classic."" -- Christopher Hill "The strength of this book lies in the total view of political and social conditions of the period which underpins it ... Unlike so many other books on Shakespeare now appearing, it will not scare off the non-academic reader." - Guardian --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Victor Kiernan (1913-2009) ranks among Britain's most distinguished historians. After a fellowship at Trinity College, Cambridge, and a long period spent teaching in India, he joined the History Department at the University of Edinburgh, where he served as professor of modern history from 1970 until his retirement. Over the course of his life he authored such works as European Empires from Conquest to Collapse; The Duel in European History; The Lords of Human Kind and numerous others, as well as translating two volumes of Urdu poetry.
