Salvation at Stake examines sixteenth-century Christian martyrdom as it was experienced cross-confessionally among Anabaptists, Protestants, and Roman Catholics, primarily in England, France, and the Low Countries; by deeply and insightfully reading from a huge range of the respective hagiographic, epistolatory, and theological sources, Gregory demonstrates that martyrs "were exceptional in their behavior, but not in their beliefs or values" (8). Mackey's ongoing epistolatory fiction (the second volume of which has been published recently as Djbot Baghostus's Run) is titled From a Broken Bottle Traces of Perfume Still Emanate. As for Marsuppini, there is no evidence of close contact, and Marsuppini's closeness to Niccoli and Traversari, and his open hostility toward Bruni's friend Filelfo, would suggest that the lack of epistolatory contact means a coolness between them. |
