Painting the fullest picture to date of early modern England's bilingual poetic culture, this study contextualises landmark texts ranging from Tottel's miscellany to the hymns of Isaac Watts, via Shakespeare, Jonson, Herbert, Marvell, Milton and Cowley. This account is invaluable for both scholars of early modern English poetry and classicists.
