In the two hundred years from 1475 London was transformed from a
medieval commune into a metropolis of half a million people, a
capital city, and a major European trading centre. New
possibilities emerged for cultural exchange and combination, social
and political order, and literary expression. Integrating literary
and historical analysis, and drawing on recent work in literary
theory and cultural studies, Literature and culture in early modern
London provides a comprehensive account of the changing image and
influence of London in lyrics, ballads, jests, epics, satires,
plays, pageants, chronicles, treatises, sermons, and official
documents. Lawrence Manley shows how the literature and culture of
London contributed to the new structures of capitalism, to the
process of "behavioral urbanization", and to a paradoxical
liberation of the individual through the city's concentrated power.
