The contributors, who are all highly regarded scholars and teachers in the field, place the literature of the period within a set of relevant historical, intellectual and cultural contexts, including: economics; religion; empire and exploration; education, humanism and rhetoric; censorship and patronage; royal marriage and succession; treason and rebellion; "others" in England; private lives; cosmology and the body; and life-writing. Their contributions incorporate recent developments in the field, as well as work soon to be published. The volume as a whole makes the period accessible and enticing to students, and provides innovative syntheses that will be of interest to scholars.
