The Tudor era has long been associated with the rise of nationalism in England, yet nationalist writing in this period often involved thedenigration and outright denial of Englishness. Philip Schwyzerargues that the ancient, insular, and imperial nation imagined in the works of writers such as Shakespeare and Spenser was not England but Britain. Disclaiming their Anglo-Saxon ancestry, the English sought their origins in a nostalgic vision of British antiquity.Focusing on texts including The Faerie Queene, English and Welsh antiquarian works, The Mirror for Magistrates, Henry V, and King Lear, Schwyzer charts the genesis, development, and disintegration of British nationalism in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.An important contribution to the expanding scholarship on early modern Britishness, this is the first study of its kind to give detailedattention to Welsh texts and traditions, arguing that Welsh sources crucially influenced the development of English literature andidentity. |
