Elizabethan World Reference Library: Primary Sources

Elizabeth Shostak,Sonia G Benson,Jennifer Stock

During the reign of Elizabeth I, 1558-1603, England was transformed from a backward and isolated island to a leading military power and commercial center in which culture and the arts flourished. Filling the gaps left by other Shakespearean resources, Elizabethan World Reference Library covers the broad sweep of the culture of the times, from Elizabeths court to rural life, and from the New World explorations to the remarkable flowering of literature and drama for which the era is renowned. Perfect for both history and literatures studies, this set was designed with the student in mind: numerous illustrations for key visuals, chronology to maintain perspective, sidebars to add interest, words to know for additional clarification, subject index for easy navigation and many other features, such as research and activity ideas and further reading suggestions.

Primary Sources is a hand-picked collection of some of the most significant and studied documents of the era, among them Elizabeth I: Speeches, excerpts from The Book of Common Prayer, Pope Pius Vs Bull against Elizabeth and Shakespeares Richard II.PIM31-MAY-1801
