Download or read book The Cambridge History of Early Modern English Literature written by David Loewenstein and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-01-16 with total page 1064 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2003 book is a full-scale history of early modern English literature, offering perspectives on English literature produced in Britain between the Reformation and the Restoration. While providing the general coverage and specific information expected of a major history, its twenty-six chapters address recent methodological and interpretive developments in English literary studies. The book has five sections: 'Modes and Means of Literary Production, Circulation, and Reception', 'The Tudor Era from the Reformation to Elizabeth I', 'The Era of Elizabeth and James VI', 'The Earlier Stuart Era', and 'The Civil War and Commonwealth Era'. While England is the principal focus, literary production in Scotland, Ireland and Wales is treated, as are other subjects less frequently examined in previous histories, including women's writings and the literature of the English Reformation and Revolution. This history is an essential resource for specialists and students.

Download or read book The Elizabethan Top Ten written by Emma Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engaging with histories of the book and of reading, as well as with studies of material culture, this volume explores ’popularity’ in early modern English writings. Is ’popular’ best described as a theoretical or an empirical category in this period? How can we account for the gap between modern canonicity and early modern print popularity? How might we weight the evidence of popularity from citations, serial editions, print runs, reworkings, or extant copies? Is something that sells a lot always popular, even where the readership for print is only a small proportion of the population, or does popular need to carry something of its etymological sense of the public, the people? Four initial chapters sketch out the conceptual and evidential issues, while the second part of the book consists of ten short chapters-a ’hit parade’- in which eminent scholars take a genre or a single exemplar - play, romance, sermon, or almanac, among other categories-as a means to articulate more general issues. Throughout, the aim is to unpack and interrogate assumptions about the popular, and to decentre canonical narratives about, for example, the sermons of Donne or Andrewes over Smith, or the plays of Shakespeare over Mucedorus. Revisiting Elizabethan literary culture through the lenses of popularity, this collection allows us to view the subject from an unfamiliar angle-in which almanacs are more popular than sonnets and proclamations more numerous than plays, and in which authors familiar to us are displaced by names now often forgotten.

Download or read book The Aspiring Mind of the Elizabethan Younger Generation written by Anthony Esler and published by Durham, N.C. : Duke University Press. This book was released on 1966 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book applies the generational concept, so useful to students of our own time, to the study of Elizabethan history. Written in the form of a group biography of a generation of Renaissance English aristocrats born about the year 1560, this study focuses on the courtier class and their aspirations for military honor and political power. The social, intellectual, and historical factors that produced their hard-driving personal ambition are examined and illustrated in the careers of such celebrated Elizabethan courtiers as Sir Walter Raleigh, Sir Robert Cecil, the Earl of Essex, and the "Buccaneer Earl" of Cumberland. The young courtiers of this generation, passionate questers after honor and glory, went to war against the Spaniards in the 1580's and did their share to help defeat the Spanish Armanda in 1588. Thereafter, in the 1590's, they intrigued feverishly at the court of the aging Queen Elizabeth for political influence and high place. Teh impact of war and politics on these young men, and on their exalted aspirations for power and glory, were duly chronicled and anatomized by the perceptive writers of their generation. The role of the literary and philosophical reflections of these high aspiring minds in the birth and spread of the idea of progress are studied in the writings of such diverse talents as Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, Sir Phillip Sidney, Edmund Spenser, and William Shakespeare. As young men, the generation of 1560 felt that the young generation of their fathers who were in power was holding them in check and was too conservative. But when they were themselves middle-aged or growing old their ambition was still unrealized. This failure and the resulting frustration were basic causes of the melancholy mood of the late Elizabethan and Jacobean times. As this melancholy view of the world became widespread, the generation of 1560 began to see the validity of their father's lessons. They became more conservative and like their predecessors a half century before, they began to realize their arrogant ambition often led to disaster."-Publisher.

Download or read book Surveillance Militarism and Drama in the Elizabethan Era written by C. Breight and published by Springer. This book was released on 1996-11-07 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curtis Breight challenges the view that Renaissance English rulers could not dominate their domestic population. He argues, alternatively, that the Elizabethan state was controlled by the Cecilian faction, which maintained power by focusing English energies outwardly. Cecilians launched relentless assaults by land and sea against England's neighbours. By the 1590s their policies had enriched a few yet destroyed countless people, and this book reads the drama of Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare in relation to ongoing national and international conflict.
