Opis

This is a study of a group of Jacobean Spenserian poets, William Browne, George Wither, and Christopher Brooke, and of the ways in which these writers represented themselves as a distinctive oppositional community in the years 1612 to 1625.

Recenzje

The 'Shepheard's Nation' is an important contribution to our understanding of Jacobean literature and politics. Michelle O'Callaghan writes lucidly and carefully, and her book is genuinely interdisciplinary, dealing authoritatively with politcal history and theory and with the development of print culture, as well as with literary works.
