Literary Culture in Jacobean England : Reading 1621 Paperback / softback
by P. Salzman
Paperback / softback
Description
This book offers an unparalleled depth of historical research by surveying the extraordinary richness of literary culture in a single year.
Paul Salzman examines what is written, published, performed and, in some cases, even spoken during 1621 in Britain.
Well-known works by writers such as Donne, Burton, Middleton, and Ralegh, are examined alongside hitherto unknown works in a huge variety of genres: plays, poems, romances, advice books, sermons, histories, parliamentary speeches, royal proclamations.
This is a work of literary history that greatly enhances knowledge of what it was like to read, write and listen in early modern Britain.
