Erin McCarthy
Erin A. McCarthy is a postdoctoral researcher on the ERC-funded project "RECIRC: The Reception and Circulation of Early Modern Women's Writing, 1550-1700" (http://recirc.nuigalway.ie). Her research focuses on the transmission and reception of women's writing in manuscript miscellanies. She is also completing a book, _Print, Poetry, and the Reading Public in Early Modern England_, which argues that the print publication of lyric poetry indelibly altered English ideas about the function and status of literature.
