This work takes a new approach to the evolution of the modern
English lyric, emphasizing the way in which several generations of
poets, reacting to post-Reformation readers' dislike for invented
poetic narratives, competed for the right to commemorate important
public occasions and slowly expanded the range of acceptable
occasions. The book demonstrates that many fundamental features of
a typical modern lyric actually evolved as responses to the
limitations of occasional poetry.
