This volume brings together new work on the image of the nation and
the construction of national identity in English literature of the
seventeenth century. The chapters in the collection explore visions
of British nationhood in literary works including Michael Drayton
and John Selden's Poly-Olbion and Andrew Marvell's Horatian Ode,
shedding new light on topics ranging from debates over territorial
waters and the free seas, to the emergence of hyphenated
identities, and the perennial problem of the Picts. Concluding with
a survey of recent work in British studies and the history of early
modern nationalism, this collection highlights issues of British
national identity, cohesion, and disintegration that remain
undeniably relevant and topical in the twenty-first century. This
book was originally published as a special issue of the journal,
The Seventeenth Century.
