Talk:Stephen Greenblatt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article needs to be toned down considerable. Right now it reads like an uncritcal, promotional essay. Lotte Monz 15:38, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps it was written by Greenblatt himself. While I admire the completeness of the article I question whether it's warranted given that much more important scholars barely recieve a few paragraphs. [Anon]
The article is still too hyperbolic in parts. Although a common (mis)conception, many students of theory would find it absurdly reductive to hear he 'founded' New Historicism (as just one example)! Several book-jacket-like blurbs have resurfaced under the 'quotations' section as well. As it stands at the moment, the entire section itself feels rather out of place.

So it says. February has come and gone. Has the book come forth yet, or not? --Christofurio 15:36, May 1, 2005 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.
