Reviews
"Manley canvasses and analyzes an astonishing array of literary sources ...there is no doubt that students of social and cultural history, as well as literary history, will find this a work of many-faceted values." Albion, "Manley's book is hugely ambitious and correspondingly huge in size. It is thoughtful and often provocative...its readings are brilliantly instructive." American Historical Review, "The conscientious density of his scholarship makes it a choice between reading his book or half-a-dozen superficial ones." Studies in English Literature, "...overall a scholarly achievement wholly admirable in its scope, detail, clarity, and thoughtfulness." Anne Lancashire, Medieval & Renaissance Drama in England, "...his [Manley's] book, documented with superbly chosen literary examples, should become important for advanced students of literary history." Choice, 'Lawrence Manley's thoroughly researched and well-written book concerns the growth in size and importance of London during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries....Literature and Culture in Early Modern England is an informative and painstakingly researched book....the author does an excellent job of demonstrating how London, a city that grew from 35,000 people in 1501 to 500,000 in 1670, created a change and proliferation of English literature in the early modern period. Lawrence Manley's book will prove useful to scholars of literature and history." Sixteenth Century Journal

Synopsis
In the two hundred years from 1475 London was transformed from a medieval commune into a metropolis of half a million people, a capital city and a major European trading centre. New possibilities emerged for cultural exchange and combination, social and political order, and literary expression. Integrating literary and historical analysis, and drawing on recent work in literary theory and cultural studies, Literature and Culture in Early Modern London provides a comprehensive account of the changing image and influence of London in lyrics, ballads, jests, epics, satires, plays, pageants, chronicles, treatises, sermons and official documents. Lawrence Manley shows how the literature and culture of London contributed to the new structures of capitalism, the process of 'behaviour urbanisation', and a paradoxical liberation of the individual through the city's concentrated power., Early modern London was a place of transformation, becoming a metropolis and major European trading centre. This is a comprehensive account of the city's literature and culture, including its contribution to new structures of capitalism, and the liberation of the individual through the city's concentrated power., In the two hundred years from 1475 London was transformed from a medieval commune into a metropolis of half a million people, a capital city, and a leading European trading center.

- .***- (826)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book was in very good condition as listed; in fact, better than represented, appearing almost new. I only saw one folded down page corner, which is only a minor thing. The book was shipped very quickly and the price charged was extremely reasonable. The book was packaged extremely well using cardboard and bubble wrap to keep it from bending. Thank you for the prompt and conscientious service. I highly recommend this seller. I would purchase from them again without hesitation. Thank you! A+Cookbooks Diets Food & Wine & more Choose from 80+ titles - buy more, save more (Nr. 277195579613)
