Milton, Marvell, and the Dutch Republic: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Milton, Marvell, and the Dutch Republic" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The tumultuous relations between Britain and the United Provinces in the seventeenth century provide the backdrop to this book, striking new ground as its transnational framework permits an overview of their intertwined culture, politics, trade, intellectual exchange, and religious debate. How the English and Dutch understood each other is coloured by these factors, and revealed through an imagological method, charting the myriad uses of stereotypes in different genres and contexts. The discussion is anchored in a specific context through the lives and works of John Milton and Andrew Marvell, whose complex connections with Dutch people and society are investigated. As well as turning overdue attention to neglected Dutch writers of the period, the book creates new possibilities for reading Milton and Marvell as not merely English, but European poets.

Milton, Marvell, and the Dutch Republic
The tumultuous relations between Britain and the United Provinces in the seventeenth century provide the backdrop to this book, striking new ground as its transnational framework permits an overview of their intertwined culture, politics, trade, intellectual exchange, and religious debate. How the English and Dutch understood each other is coloured by these factors, and revealed through an imagological method, charting the myriad uses of stereotypes in different genres and contexts. The discussion is anchored in a specific context through the lives and works of John Milton and Andrew Marvell, whose complex connections with Dutch people and society are investigated. As well as turning overdue attention to neglected Dutch writers of the period, the book creates new possibilities for reading Milton and Marvell as not merely English, but European poets.

Routledge Studies in Renaissance and Early Modern Worlds of Knowledge
Series Editors: Harald E. Braun
University of Liverpool
Emily Michelson
University of St Andrews
This series explores Renaissance and Early Modern Worlds of Knowledge (c.1400-c.1700) in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. The volumes published in this series study the individuals, communities and networks involved in making and communicating knowledge during the first age of globalisation. Authors investigate the perceptions, practices and modes of behaviour which shaped Renaissance and Early Modern intellectual endeavour and examine the ways in which they reverberated in the political, cultural, social and economic sphere.
The series is interdisciplinary, comparative and global in its outlook. We welcome submissions from new as well as existing fields of Renaissance Studies, including the history of literature (including neo-Latin, European and non-European languages), science and medicine, religion, architecture, environmental and economic history, the history of the book, art history, intellectual history and the history of music. We are particularly interested in proposals that straddle disciplines and are innovative in terms of approach and methodology.
The series includes monographs, shorter works and edited collections of essays. The Society for Renaissance Studies (www.rensoc.org.uk) provides an expert editorial board, mentoring, extensive editing and support for contributors to the series, ensuring high standards of peer-reviewed scholarship. We welcome proposals from early career researchers as well as more established colleagues.

Guide
All poetry of John Milton is from the following editions:
  • Paradise Lost, ed. by Alastair Fowler (London: Longman Pearson, 2007).
  • The Complete Shorter Poems, ed. by John Carey (London: Longman Pearson, 2007).
All poetry of Andrew Marvell is from the following edition:
  • The Poems of Andrew Marvell, ed. by Nigel Smith (London: Longman Pearson, 2007).
All poetry of Joost van den Vondel is from the following edition:
  • De werken van Vondel, ed. by J.F.M. Sterck, et al., 10 vols. (Amsterdam: Wereldbibliotheek, 19271937).
All poetry and plays of John Dryden are from the following editions:
  • The Works of John Dryden, ed. by Edward Niles Hooker and H.T. Swedenberg, 20 vols. (Los Angeles: University of California Press, 1974).
I have used modern editions for quotations from English primary sources when available. When unavailable, I have retained the original spellings.
All Dutch, Latin and French quotations used in the book are translated by myself, unless otherwise stated in the endnotes. I have decided to include all Dutch (and other languages) sources within the text itself (with some minor exceptions) rather than presenting them in the endnotes. Having the translations side by side, especially with poetry, enables the reader to make direct comparisons. Frequently the availability of similar expressions and images illustrates lines of connection between the Dutch and the English. It was also important to display the alexandrine form and robust enjoyment of full rhyme that almost all of Dutch poetry shares (an interesting contrast with Miltons iambic blank verse, which also raised eyebrows in England). Hopefully, the original sense and rhyme scheme can still be followed.
