The Writing of Royalism 1628 1660

By Robert Wilcher

Book Overview

In The Writing of Royalism, Robert Wilcher charts the political and ideological development of royalism between 1628 and 1660. His study situates a wide range of minor and canonical texts in the tumultuous political contexts of the time, helpfully integrating them into a detailed historical narrative. He illustrates the role of literature in forging a party committed to the military defense of royalist values and determined to sustain them in defeat.
