This book explores the things which united, rather than divided, poets during the English Civil Wars, focusing less on conflicts between 'Cavaliers' and 'Roundheads' than on the friendships and shared literary enthusiasms of men of various political allegiance. Includes new readings of the early verse of John Milton and Andrew Marvell.

Autorenporträt
Nicholas McDowell grew up in Belfast and was educated at Cambridge and Oxford. He was a Research Fellow of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, before moving to the University of Exeter in 2001. He is the editor, with Nigel Smith, of The Oxford Handbook of Milton, a collection of newly-commissioned research essays by more than 30 leading scholars to mark the quatercentenary of Milton's birth in 2008. His research in the next few years will focus on the 12-volume Oxford Complete Works of John Milton, for which he is editing The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates, Observations Upon the Articles of Peace, and Eikonoklastes. These will appear in Volume 6: Vernacular Regicide and Republican Writings in 2011. In 2007 he was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize by the Leverhulme Trust in recognition of the international impact of his research.
