Book Description: In No Island Is an Island an internationally renowned historian approaches four works of English literature from unexpected angles. Following in the footsteps of a sixteenth-cent sixteenth-century Spanish bishop we gain a fresh view of Thomas More´s Utopia. Comparing Bayle´s Dictionary with Tristram Shandy we suddenly enter into Laurence Sterne´s mind. A seemingly narrow dispute among Elizabethan critics for and against rhyme turns into an early debate on English national identity. Robert Louis Stevenson´s story "The Bottle Imp" throws a new light on Bronislaw Malinowsky´s attempts to discover meaning in the "kula" trading system among the Trobriand Islanders. Throughout, Ginzburg´s inquiry is informed by his unique microhistorical sensibility, his attention to minute detail, and his extraordinary synthesizing imagination.
