Andrew Marvell and the Dutch fifth column
This essay discusses a previously unknown copy of Andrew Marvell’s Mr Smirke, which features annotations in his hand. We argue that the recipient of the volume was the Anglo-Dutch agent “William Freeman”, who was closely involved with a Dutch fifth column, set up by William of Orange and his spymaster Pierre Du Moulin, which lobbied Parliament during the Third Anglo-Dutch War. The essay discusses further archival evidence of Marvell’s links to Fr…

Soe Honny from the Lyon came’
In November 1657, as a new session of Parliament approached and Cromwell deliberated with his council over the membership of his new upper house of Parliament, the French ambassador wrote home to remark that the atmosphere in Whitehall appeared to be changing:there seems to be a different spirit, dances having been held there again during these past days, and the preachers of the older times are withdrawing from it, ... The subalterns of the army…
