Examines Englishness as a form and series of shared discourses, exerting a continuity between the 17th century and today. It argues that today's writers, historians and comedians continue to use the voice of the empiricist tradition.
In this highly engaging book, Antony Easthope examines ''Englishness'' as a form and a series of shared discourses. Discussing the subject of ''nation'' - a growing area in literary and cultural studies - Easthope offers polemical arguments written in a lively and accessible style. Englishness and National Culture asserts a profound and unacknowledged continuity between the seventeenth century and today. It argues that contemporary journalists, historians, novelists, poets and comedians continue to speak through the voice of a long-standing empiricist tradition.
