The Self-Fashioning - An Analysis of the Letters and Speeches of Oliver Cromwell (Paperback)

The Self-Fashioning of Oliver Cromwell provides a close analysis of Cromwell's letters and speeches. It assesses the influence of Cromwell's Puritan faith, and evaluates Cromwell's role in the main public arenas of his life. The work also examines the significance of the title 'Lord Protector', and discusses Cromwell's acceptance of that title. Self-fashioning theory is employed to highlight the ways in which Cromwell fashioned himself in opposition to threatening Others. The book also discusses the ways in which the parameters of Cromwell's time, such as the religious and political environment, influenced his self-fashioning. The final chapter explores the relationship between Cromwell's self-fashioning and his public image. This book will be of interest to historians, to literary scholars, for those concerned with self-fashioning, and to the general reader.
