Description
Andrew Marvell is one of the most enigmatic and elusive 17th-century poets. The 12 new essays collected in this volume explore both the unity and the diversity, the brillance and the depth, reflected in his notoriously subtle and complex poetry. Placing Marvell and his work in a variety of biographical, generic and intellectual context, "On the Celebrated and Neglected Poems of Andrew marvell" examines a major Renaissance figure from a number of vantage points. Some essays focus on the celebrated lyrical and political poems and other focus on the more neglected areas of Marvell's canon. Individual works, pervasive ideas, and characteristic influences and techniques are elucidated. As evidenced by this volume, Marvell and his works remain vital in their ability to excite scholarly admiration and critical interest even as they continue to resist glib generalizations and easy consensus.
