Early Modern Catholics, Royalists, and Cosmopolitans

English Transnationalism and the Christian Commonwealth

Beschreibung

Early Modern Catholics, Royalists, and Cosmopolitans looks at how the perspective of sixteenth-century English Catholic exiles and seventeenth-century English royalist exiles helped to generate a form of cosmopolitanism that was rooted in, but also transcended, contemporary religious and national identities. Lockey considers the experiences of English exiles and the influence that they had on writers such as Edmund Spenser, Sir Philip Sidney, Anthony Munday, Sir John Harington, Sir Richard Fanshawe, John Milton, and Aphra Behn.
