More about the book

The book explores the tension between the courtly ideal and the georgic spirit in English poetry from 1590 to 1700. It argues that the georgic, with its emphasis on rural life and labor, significantly influenced the poetic landscape during this period, challenging the dominance of aristocratic themes. Through this analysis, the author highlights the cultural and artistic shifts that shaped English literature, emphasizing the importance of georgic values in contrast to the prevailing courtly ideals.
