The Politics of Speech makes its case with an enviable dexterity of style and an easy reference to a large corpus of scholarship. There is, in addition, a rare and beautiful humanity that accompanies the scholarly humility, which is not a pose but an earnest trust in poetry” (Walt Hunter, Modern Philology, December 18, 2023) Author InformationWilliam Fogarty is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Central Florida, USA.
