Reviews:

• Dorthy Auchter has comilied a most useful Dictionary of Literary and Dramatic Censorship in Tudor and Stuart England....The entries are intrinsically fascinating, dealing as they do with necessarily incendiary material. This is a very handy compilation and should be of real use as a reference book.
  —Students in English Literature Winter 2003
• The advantages of this collection - its compressed, accessible form, the varity of its entries, and its thumbnail bibliographies for each entry - make it an ideal sourcebook for graduate courses on the topic and a terrific way to introduce students to the complicated history of literary censorship in early modern England. Even scholars familiar in one area of censored texts or a particular period will find something new and intriguing in this collection.
