The Oxford English Literary History: Volume V: 1645-1714: The Later Seventeenth Century
Margaret J. M. Ezell (Distinguished Professor of English and John and Sara Lindsey Chair of Liberal Arts, Texas A&M University)
The Oxford English Literary History is the new century’s definitive account of a rich and diverse literary heritage that stretches back for a millennium and more.
This volume covers the period 1645-1714, and removes the traditional literary period labels and boundaries used in earlier studies to categorize the literary culture of late seventeenth-century England. It invites readers to explore the continuities and the literary innovations occurring during six turbulent decades, as English readers and writers lived through unprecedented events including a King tried and executed by Parliament and another exiled, the creation of the national entity ‘Great Britain’, and an expanding English awareness of the New World.
