Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger L'Estrange (1616-1704) was one of the most remarkable, significant and colourful figures in seventeenth-century England. Whilst there has been regular, if often cursory, scholarly interest in his activities as Licenser and Stuart apologist, this is the first sustained book-length study of the man for almost a century. L'Estrange's engagement on the Royalist side during the Civil war, and his energetic pamphleteering for the return of the King in the months preceding the Restoration earned him a reputation as one of the most radical royalist apologists. As Licenser for the Press under Charles II, he was charged with preventing the printing and publication of dissenting writings; his additional role as Surveyor of the Press authorised him to search the premises of printers and booksellers on the mere suspicion of such activity. He was also a tireless pamphleteer, journalist, and controversialist in the conformist cause, all of which made him the bête noire of Whigs and non-conformists. This collection of essays by leading scholars of the period highlights the instrumental role L'Estrange played in the shaping of the political, literary, and print cultures of the Restoration period. Taking an interdisciplinary approach the volume covers all the major aspects of his career, as well as situating them in their broader historical and literary context. By examining his career in this way the book offers insights that will prove of worth to political, social, religious and cultural historians, as well as those interested in seventeenth-century literary and book history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Roger Lestrange a Contribution to the History of the Press in the Seventeenth Century But few even of those who are capable of relishing the distinction between fine classical work and the rude incult native will have the patience to read his political works. Gnarled, bitter, black, and wasted, are these products of seventeenth -century strife. Their great quality is one which is generally lacking in present-day writing, they are virile. Their abuse - the staple of the kind - is virile. There is no verbal finesse, none of the tricks of the sophist. They are almost lacking in rhetoric in the popular sense. But for late events in the north-east corner of Ireland, we might have said that. The causes they championed are for gotten. The minor characters at least are lost to all save the special student. But his story may still attract the historically-minded. He had the gift or misfortune which some men have of entangling themselves with every interest of the day music, the Royal Society, cavalier song and wit at the one end of the social scale, at the other, war, intrigue, imprison ment, office and the thousand bitternesses of public life. A mere instrument he was not. He went further and more rapidly than his masters. In a sense he became the mind of his party. A picturesque figure is all the relations of life!
