The Cambridge Companion to English Literature, 1500–1600
This is the first comprehensive account of English Renaissance literature in the context of the culture which shaped it: the courts of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, the tumult of Catholic and Protestant alliances during the Reformation, the age of printing and of New World discovery. In this century courtly literature under Henry VIII moves toward a new, more personal poetry of sentiment, narrative and romance. The development of English prose is s…

Habits of Thought in the English Renaissance: Religion, Politics, and the Dominant Culture
When attempting to globally divide ideas into orthodox and subversive categories, it is not always clear what precisely is subversive to the dominant ideology and vice versa. Going against recent trends in English Renaissance studies, Deborah Shuger examines orthodox, rather than subversive, methods of thought in the English Renaissance. Instead of finding a monolithic, unified body of thought, she reveals a remarkably non-uniform 'orthodox' ideo…
Nation or Estate: Ideological Conflict in the Early Modern Mapping of England
The reign of Queen Elizabeth produced the first two county-by-county cartographic surveys of England and Wales: Christopher Saxton's atlas (1579) and John Norden's unfinished Speculum Britanniae (1592-1604). This paper explores the relation between the work Saxton and especially Norden did on these national projects and their work as estate surveyors, for by the 1590s significant ideological conflict had developed between these two activities. No…

Self-crowned laureates: Spenser, Jonson, Milton, and the literary system
The Elizabeth Laureate: Self-Presentation and the Literary System
In the 1590s, when Ben Jonson set up for poet, the English literary world offered three career models: the amateur, the professional, and what I will call the laureate. Twenty years earlier, when Spenser was beginning to write, there had been only one, the amateur. Between those dates, the expansion of the literary market, particularly the market for plays, had brought into existence a small but active group of true professionals, men who depende…
