Know about the book -

Chiastic Designs in English Literature from Sidney to Shakespeare is written by William E. Engel and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0754666360 (ISBN 10) and 9780754666363 (ISBN 13).

Paying special attention to Sidney's Arcadia, Spenser's Faerie Queene, and Shakespeare's romances, this study engages in sustained examination of chiasmus in early modern English literature. The author's approach leads to the recovery of hidden designs which are shown to animate important works of literature; along the way Engel offers fresh and more comprehensive interpretations of seemingly shopworn conventions such as memento mori conceits, echo poems, and the staging of deus ex machina.
