Acknowledgments

The editors are grateful to all those who have made Digital Milton possible. David Currell was fortunate to study the history of textual media with Bernard Muir and Milton with David Quint, two extraordinarily generous teachers. Islam Issa has continued to benefit from all that he was taught by Hugh Adlington. The Birmingham City University Faculty of Arts, Design and Media’s Research Investment Scheme bought time out for Islam Issa to work on this project and funded the index, prepared by Nick de Somogyi. Special thanks are due to Andrew Kehoe, as well as Gemma Moss, Tim Wall, and Sarah Wood. An Erasmus+ staff mobility exchange allowed the editors to spend valuable time working on this volume together in Beirut and Birmingham. We are grateful to Peter Sjølyst-Jackson, Lucy Stubbs, Hala Dimechkie, and Olga Safa for their support in making this possible. We are also grateful to discussants and audiences at a Faculty of Arts and Sciences Research Lunch, American University of Beirut (November 2016), and at the roundtable “Milton and the Digital Humanities,” Renaissance Society of America Annual Meeting in C
