Description

This comprehensive history by Roger Pooley traces the breadth of seventeenth-century English prose writing from 1590 to 1700, covering narrative forms including the fiction of Bunyan and Aphra Behn alongside biographical and autobiographical works by Aubrey and Pepys. The study examines religious prose from the Authorised Version to Donne's sermons, explores political writings by Milton, Hobbes, Locke and Marvell, and investigates scientific texts from Bacon to Newton. Part of the Longman Literature in English Series, this volume reassesses the literary canon of the period and reveals how prose writing shaped intellectual and cultural discourse during a transformative era in English letters.
