| Synopsis: |
This book examines the ways in which usury was perceived and portrayed as it rose to popularity in Renaissance England. This book then goes onto to look at its depictions in a wide variety of literary media: plays, pamphlets, poems, political economy and parliamentary debates to suggest that a knowledge of such portrayals may help us settle accounts with the vastly expanded form taken by usury in our own time. |
