An examination both of the arts as an expression of cultural attitudes, emphasizing court culture as a focal point and source of patronage, and also of developments in science, religion and political theory. It is suitable for upper school, undergraduate and Open University students.
The seventeenth century was a period of immense turmoil. This book explores the methods by which a distinctive iconography was created for each Stuart king, describes the cultural life of the Civil War period and the Cromwellian Protectorate, and analyses the impact of the antiquarian movement which constructed a new sense of national identity. Through this detailed and fascinating discussion of seventeenth-century society, Graham Parry provides a clear insight into the many forces operating on the literature of the period.
