Description

This scholarly study explores the garden as a central symbol in early modern English literature and culture, tracing its significance from Elizabeth I's reign through the Restoration of Charles II. The book argues that gardens functioned as primary sites for imagining paradise ideals within court politics, economic prosperity, and national identity. Amy L. Tigner examines how major Renaissance writers including Gascoigne, Spenser, and Shakespeare depicted gardens as spaces where the national body of England and the gendered body of the monarch could be reimagined and understood. By analysing conceptual forms of the paradise imaginary across this transformative period, the study reveals how literary representations of gardens reflected progressive narratives of change and offered visions of Eden as an obtainable ideal in early modern England.
