The early modern period inherited a deeply-ingrained culture of
Christian remembrance that proved a platform for creativity in a
remarkable variety of forms. From the literature of church ritual
to the construction of monuments; from portraiture to the
arrangement of domestic interiors; from the development of textual
rites to drama of the contemporary stage, the early modern world
practiced 'arts of remembrance' at every turn. The turmoils of the
Reformation and its aftermath transformed the habits of creating
through remembrance. Ritually observed and radically reinvented,
remembrance was a focal point of the early modern cultural
imagination for an age when beliefs both crossed and divided
communities of the faithful. The Arts of Remembrance in Early
Modern England maps the new terrain of remembrance in the
post-Reformation period, charting its negotiations with the
material, the textual and the performative.
