Description

Explore the landmark 1557 publication that transformed English poetry in The Making and Marketing of Tottel's Miscellany. Published during the Protestant Reformation's turbulent summer, this scholarly work examines how Songes and Sonettes - credited with introducing Italianate verse forms to England - shaped literary history. Often dismissed by scholars focused solely on its technical innovations, Tottel's Miscellany merits deeper analysis of its cultural significance and role in paving the way for the Golden Age of Elizabethan poetry. This Routledge volume from the Catholic Christendom, 1300-1700 series provides critical perspective on how this foundational anthology influenced generations of English writers and remains essential reading for anyone studying Renaissance literature, poetry history, and the evolution of English verse forms during this pivotal period.

Key Features

Examines Tottel's Miscellany as the first major English poetry anthology responsible for introducing Italianate verse forms to England in 1557.

Contextualises the publication within the summer of Protestant martyrs' fires across England, revealing how historical events shaped literary production.

Part of the Catholic Christendom, 1300-1700 series, offering specialised scholarly analysis for academic study of Renaissance literature and poetry history.

Challenges conventional dismissals of the miscellany's literary quality by providing critical reassessment of its cultural and historical importance.
