Description

Explore the deep connection between religious doctrine and literary expression with Literature in Protestant England, 1560-1660. Originally published in 1983, this Routledge Revival study examines how the hardline, uncompromising theology of the English Church during the 16th and 17th centuries influenced the writing of the era. This work moves beyond the common view of the period as purely Christian-Humanist. Instead, it looks at the harsher aspects of Calvinism and how these religious tensions shaped the works of major writers. Whether authors were in sympathy with or opposed to contemporary Protestantism, their writing reflected the religious climate of the time. Readers will gain a better understanding of the spiritual struggles found in literature, from the agonies expressed by writers like Donne to the acceptances seen in others. This book is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the history of English literature and the impact of religious shifts on creative thought.
