Stephen Hamrick demonstrates how poets writing in the first part of
Elizabeth I's reign proved instrumental in transferring Catholic
worldviews and paradigms to the cults and early anti-cults of
Elizabeth. Stephen Hamrick provides a detailed analysis of poets
who used Petrarchan poetry to transform many forms of Catholic
piety, ranging from confession and transubstantiation to sacred
scriptures and liturgical singing, into a multivocal discourse used
to fashion, refashion, and contest strategic political, religious,
and courtly identities for the Queen and for other Court patrons.
These poets, writers previously overlooked in many studies of Tudor
culture, include Barnabe Googe, George Gascoigne, and Thomas
Watson. Stephen Hamrick here shows that the nature of the religious
reformations in Tudor England provided the necessary contexts
required for Petrarchanism to achieve its cultural centrality and
artistic complexity. This study makes a strong contribution to our
understanding of the complex interaction among Catholicism,
Petrachanism, and the second English Reformation.
