    Alexander Pope and Myth in the Early British Enlightenment

    Modifié par A.D. Cousins, Daniel Derrin ...
    Collections series Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Literature
    This volume is the first to discuss the canon of Pope’s verse in relation to Early British Enlightenment thinking about mythology and mythography.

  • Andrew Marvell

    Loss and aspiration, home and homeland in Miscellaneous Poems

    par A. D. Cousins ...
    This monograph studies how, across the Folio of 1681, Marvell's poems engage not merely with different kinds of loss and aspiration, but with experiences of both that were, in mid-seventeenth-century England, disturbingly new and unfamiliar. It particularly examines Marvell's preoccupation with the search for home, and with redefining the homeland, in times of civil upheaval. In doing so it traces ... En savoir plus

These were also important preoccupations between the English and the French revolutions: a period when Britain was first at war within itself, then achieved a confident if precarious equilibrium, and finally seemed to have come ...

  • Ben Jonson and the Politics of Genre

    Modifié par A. D. Cousins, Alison V. Scott ...
    While Ben Jonson's political visions have been well documented, this study was the first to consider how he threaded his views into the various literary genres in which he wrote.
