Roger D Sell Editor & Author

Roger D. Sell is H.W. Donner Research Professor of Literary Communication at Ã…bo Akademi University, Finland. He has published widely on authors from every period of English literature, and has developed an account of literature as one among other forms of communication. His main aim here has been to support literary scholars trying to mediate between writers and readers who are differently situated, and to provide a framework for the ethical critique of both authors and their readers. His work in progress includes a scholarly edition of the complete poems of Sir John Beaumont, and books on literary-communicational criticism and Shakespearian communication. Anthony W. Johnson is Professor and Head of English at Oulu University, Finland. His special areas of interest - Renaissance Interarts and Imagology - are reflected in a wide range of critical works and editions including: Ben Jonson: Poetry and Architecture (1994), Three Books Annotated by Inigo Jones (1997), William Cavendish's Country Captain (1999), and John Boys's Fasti Cantuarianses (2009). Forthcoming work includes a book on cultural imagology and an introduction to Ben Jonson for the Writers and their Work new series.
