The Puritan Literary Tradition

Beschreibung

This essay collection proposes that a puritan literary tradition existed that was distinct from broader conceptions of early modern English and Protestant traditions and offers a nuanced account of the distinct and variegated contribution that puritanism has made to the construction of 'literature' as a concept in English.
