Description

Explore the deep connections between family structures and state identity in early modern England with this academic study from Routledge. This book examines how the figure of the bastard served as more than just a character type, acting as a significant element in the formation of British national identity during the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. By analyzing a wide range of prose and drama from this era, the text provides a fresh look at the semiotics of bastardy. Readers will gain a better understanding of how literary representations of illegitimacy helped shape the concepts of the national family and the state. This work is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the social history and literary culture of early modern Britain.
