Part I describes the ‘social rules of writing’. Who could become a writer in the early seventeenth century? How could a literary career be pursued? How was literary work disseminated?

Forms of Devotion
The first part of this chapter discusses religious poetry, which reaches a zenith in English between the years 1603 and 1660, which were also a golden age for the related genres of secular love poetry.

Ben Jonson and the Roman Frame of Mind
Katharine Maus explores the biographical reasons for Jonson's preference for particular Latin authors; the effects of Roman moral and psychological paradigms on his methods of characterization and generic choices; the connection between his critical theory and artistic practice; and the impact of Roman social theory on his portrayal of communities and on his peculiar relationship with his audiences. Originally published in 1985. The Princeton Leg…
