A discussion of Philip Sidney as a creator of fictions, a critic, and a poet, who adopted a variety of personae to teach his readers how they could fool themselves into forgetting who they were, both in the context of the psychic inner world and in the outer realm of social position. Included in this study are Sidney's court entertainments now known as The Lady of May, the Defence of Leicester, Defence of Poetry, and the Arcadias.
