Defoe and Satire
This chapter examines Daniel Defoe’s satirical output. It demonstrates the importance of satire in Defoe’s literary career and suggests that he was often a less conventional satirist than most scholars have assumed. Firstly, the chapter explores Defoe’s writings about satire: how it ought to be written and what it might accomplish. It then focuses on the strategies of ‘reform’ that Defoe embedded in his satirical writing, including texts such as …
Hieroglyphic State Machine
On Saturday, 26 June 1702, William Fuller lost his left eye. It was his second day in the pillory. The morning before, he had spent two hours on display at Charing Cross, his head and hands securely fastened between locking wooden boards. He had been “sadly abused” by the Friday crowd, he claimed. But the Saturday crowd at Temple Bar would prove far worse. “I was stifled with all manner of Dirt, Filth, and rotten Eggs,” Fuller later recalled, “an…
David Edwards and the Later Stuart Underground Press
This article investigates the English underground press in the later Stuart period. Following the end of pre-publication licensing in 1695, the ongoing threat of government reprisals meant that controversial political and religious tracts continued to be printed in secret; yet the survival of the underground press into this period has been neglected in recent works of political, religious, social, cultural and literary history. The dominant view,…

Through a co-ordinated series of publications in the final years of the seventeenth century, a diverse set of commonwealth texts was entrenched into the canon of whig political thought. This article explores that canon through the lens of the history of the book. A key figure in the formation of this canon was the printer and bookseller John Darby. This article reconstructs Darby's role in the commonwealth opposition to the perceived failures of …
Legal Constraints, Libellous Evasions
This chapter considers the relationship between satire and the law during the eighteenth century. After the lapse of pre-publication licensing in 1695, satirists remained subject to the common law of libel (including seditious libel, blasphemous libel, and criminal libel) and to treason laws. Satirists and publishers used various strategies to evade prosecution under those laws: most notably anonymous publication (in print or in manuscript) and c…
