Aesthetics Of Contingency: Writing, Politics, And Culture In England, 1639-89

A study of how literature responds to conditions of political uncertainty, this book rewrites much of what we thought we knew about civil war and Restoration literature. Rather than sparking a decisive break with the past, for many the seventeenth-century's civil wars opened onto a resolutely indeterminate future. -- .
