"The years 1660 to 1714 represent a fraught transitional period, one caught between
two now dominant periodization rubrics: early modern and the long eighteenth century.
Containing narratives of disruption, restoration, and reconfiguration, Early Modern
Literature in Transition, 1660-1714 explores the conjunctions and disjunctions between
historical and literary developments in this period, when the sociable, rivalrous
textual world of letters registered and accelerated changes. Each of the volume's
four parts highlights the relationship of various literary forms to a different kind
of transformation -- generic, ideological, cultural, or local. The five chapters in
each section rigorously probe the conditions that affected the period's literary transformations,
and interrogate the traditions that canonical and less established writers inherited,
adapted, and often challenged. In making a case for an early mimetically produced
English nation, this book, through its concentration on literary evidence and transitions,
also makes innovative contributions to an understanding of nationalism in the period"
