The wittiest and yet most accessible writing in
mid-seventeeth-century England, Andrew Marvell's poetry is both
passionate and brillant, erotic and comic, cool courtly and
seductive. The friend. admirer and supporter of Milton, Marvell was
also a very great poet in his own right. Described by a
contemporary as 'of middling stature, pretty strong-set, of
roundish face, cherry-cheeked, hazel-eyed, brown-haired he was a
man of the people and a brillant intellectual. The fact that he was
both a republican and the admired favourite of Charles II indicates
the breadth of his sympathies.
