Literature of the Stuart Successions
Literature of the Stuart Successionsis an anthology of primary material relating to the Stuart successions. In addition, there were two accessions to the role of Lord Protector (those of Oliver and Richard Cromwell). The six Stuart successions (1603, 1625, 1660, 1685, 1688-9, 1702) punctuate this turbulent period of British history.
Above all, successions were marked in poems, by some of the greatest writers of the age. Each succession generated an outpouring of publications in a wide range of forms and genres, including speeches, diary-entries, news reports, letters and sermons. By gathering together some of the very best Stuart succession writing, Literature of the Stuart Successions offers fresh perspectives upon the history and culture of the period.
It includes fifty texts (or extracts), selected to demonstrate the breadth and significance of succession writing, as well
