Reviews for Confession and Memory in Early Modern English Literature: Penitential Remains (Early Modern Literature in History)
“Stegner’s introduction neatly traces the gradual erasure of Catholic private auricular confession after the Reformation and how confession was reoriented by the Elizabethan settlement. … this wide-ranging study offers a timely appraisal of the relationship between memory, the penitential tradition, and early modern English literature.” (Rachel Willie, Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 70 (1), 2017)
