9 Acknowledgements This book was made possible by a Discovery Project Grant for from the Australian Research Council. I am extremely grateful to the ARC for providing the kind of funding necessary to undertake substantial book projects such as this one, as universities these days simply cannot on their own provide the time required. I am also grateful to my colleagues at La Trobe University for their encouragement and support, especially those who offered feedback on the project at various stages: Sue Martin, Kylie Mirmohamadi and Rob Conkie. Work on this project coincided with work on early modern women s writing which provided invaluable insights into the contexts for writing in the 1620s. Members of the Network for Research on Early Modern Women could be relied on to boost my morale: Rosalind Smith, Patricia Pender, Sarah C. E. Ross, Kate Lilley, Susan Wiseman and Michelle O Callaghan. I owe a particular debt to Ros and Trisha for introducing me to the work of Matt Cohen. Queries about a variety of topics were answered by Ruth Connolly, Susan Wiseman and Andrew McRae. Thanks also to the efficient editorial staff at Palgrave Macmillan, especially to Monica Kendall for exemplary copy-editing. Much of my primary research was undertaken at the British Library, which was a model of efficiency. I would also like to thank the Bodleian Library and, for hospitality in Oxford, Tiffany Stern and Richard A. McCabe. The La Trobe University Library has been a wonderful resource, especially the Interlibrary Loan Team, who were, at times, inundated with requests from me. Some ideas in this book were tested as papers delivered at conferences held by: The Renaissance Society of America; The Australian and New Zealand Association for Medieval and Early Modern Studies; The Australian and New Zealand Shakespeare Association; Shakespeare s Spaces Symposium at the 2010 Australian Shakespeare Festival; and The Australasian Universities Language and Literature Association. The three illustrations in the book are reproduced by permission from the British Library (Eleanor Davies), and the Houghton Library, Harvard University (two pages from Thomas Scott). Finally, thanks to my family, who always make life interesting. ix
