		American Literature: Prose, fiction and nonfiction of the American colonies and the United States, written in the English language from about 1600 to the present.

	[EMLS 1.3 (December 1995): 14.1-7] Review of The Theatrical City, and of Literature and Culture in Early Modern London.
		He studies the economic and social conditions of fin de siecle London, the structure of the guilds, and the historical figure of Simon Eyre to illuminate Dekker's representation of urban tensions and their resolution.
		It is noteworthy that neither questions the validity of the historical context as an interpretative tool, or suggests that that context is itself susceptible to interpretation.
		He is alert to the ways in which the literature of the emerging metropolis both represents the expanding urban settlement and is its instrument in a process of urbanisation.

	ENG 201: Southern Literature
		Unlike the works of the Puritans, the American literature of the eighteenth century is largely secular and reflects the outlook of the Enlightenment, a cultural period in which European and American intellectuals emphasized humans’ control of their environment and valued artistic qualities such as order and balance.
		That much of this literature is extremely formulaic may matter little to its devoted readers, who indeed may appreciate the comfort that comes in knowing that the lovers will live happily ever after or that the hero will prevail in the end.
		Literature, on the other hand, often challenges readers to follow relatively slow-paced plots, to study subtle psychological traits, and to find or to make meaning out of complex symbols, explicit or implicit allusions, and intricate patterns.

	American Literature Lectures, Part I
		With the Renaissance vogue of travel literature the writings of Smith are intimately connected; to Renaissance poetic models the poetry of Anne Bradstreet owes at least its form and probably its existence.
		With unconcsious faithfulness this Puritan literature reflects the Puritan mind: its rigid Calvinism, its morbid consciousness of sin, its superstition, its austerity, its stoical bravery, its vein tenderness, its preference of morality to beauty, its contradictory tendencies toward orthodoxy and nonconformity.
		Puritan literature is antique in manner and often in matter; yet it treats profoundly a few subjects of universal and permanent importance, such as the relation between church and state, and the source and functions of governmental sovereignty.

	Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 89031660
		Lois Potter examines the effectiveness of this control and the means by which writers evaded it: illicit publication; the use of various kinds of code, such as ciphers, emblems, secret languages, symbolism and allegory; the exploitation of genres such as romance and tragicomedy; the submerging of personal identity through literary quotation and allusion.
		A final chapter considers the place of Charles I in royalist literature, with particular emphasis on the effect of the posthumous Eikon Basilike, attributed to him.
		By looking at a very wide sample of texts ranging from anonymous pamphlets to the works of well-known 'Cavalier poets', the book brings greater precision to the controversial subject of the relation of literature to politics and the relation of both to the psychology of secrecy.

	Welcome to Duquesne University Press
		Langley discusses the work of such authors such as Edmund Waller and painters like Antonio Verrio to illuminate the changing ideologies of the late Stuart era and the way in which ideas about sovereignty were expressed by artists.
		The poetry of Marvel and Dryden, multifarious political writings by greater and lesser figures, and the works of significant divines like the Whiggish Burnet, and Hickes, doyen of the non-jurers, are all used to show how the expression of ideas changed in the second half of the seventeenth century.
		This book will be a valuable addition to the libraries of all students and scholars of later seventeenth-century literature, history and art in bringing light aspects of sovereignty and the underlying principles of political cohesion in the period which have hitherto been little understood.

	Literature of the English Renaissance
		David Judkins, Ph.D. The English Renaissance spans a period from approximately 1475 with the introduction of printing into England by William Caxton, until 1667 with the publication of the first edition of Paradise Lost, arguably the finest poem in the English language.
		This is a period of enormous cultural and political changes including Henry VIII's reformation of the Catholic Church in 1532 and Oliver Cromwell's puritan rebellion, which culminated in the public beheading of Charles I outside his palace, Whitehall, in downtown London on a chilly January morning in 1649.
		Our excursion into travel literature will be just that, a brief side trip off the broader road of major literary works beginning with the satires of John Skelton, continuing into the sonnets of Wyatt, Surry, Spenser, Shakespeare, Sidney, and Donne.
