Description
This scholarly study examines how the rigid theological doctrines of the English Church during the 16th and 17th centuries shaped the literary output of the era. Originally published in 1983 and now revived by Routledge, the work reassesses major writers of the period, exploring how their work reflects engagement with or resistance to contemporary Protestantism. The book challenges the conventional 'Christian-Humanist' interpretation, instead revealing the harsher undercurrents of Calvinism that illuminate the spiritual struggles evident in poets like John Donne and George Herbert. By contextualising literature within its religious climate, the study offers deeper insight into why these writers grappled with profound theological anxieties. Essential reading for scholars of English literature, religious history, and the intellectual landscape of early modern England.

Key Features

Routledge Revivals edition presents a landmark 1983 study of Protestant theology's influence on English literature between 1560 and 1660.

Analyses major writers including John Donne and George Herbert to demonstrate how Calvinist doctrine shaped their literary expression and spiritual preoccupations.

Challenges the established 'Christian-Humanist' framework by emphasising the severe, uncompromising theological positions that defined the period.

Explores the relationship between religious climate and literary output, revealing connections between church doctrine and authorial anxiety in early modern texts.
