Virtual Paul's Cross Reviewed in Spenser Studies



http://www.english.cam.ac.uk/spenseronline/review/volume-44/442/digital-projects/meeting-john-donne-the-virtual-pauls-cross-project/

A few quotes:
 
“While its digital reenactments offer many teaching and research possibilities, the VPCP’s most significant intellectual contribution is an argument for treating early modern sermons as events, as is implied by its integration of text, time, and performance conditions.”  

Also,

“The acoustic model is . . . robust in historical detail.”
 
Also,

“One final noteworthy contribution of the VPCP is its consolidation of historical sources. . . .energizing these scarce sources is itself a remarkable accomplishment for this project.

We are deeply grateful to Professor Smith for his thoughtful and generous review!
