Doubtful and dangerous examines the pivotal influence of the
succession question on the politics, religion and culture of the
post-Armada years of Queen Elizabeth's reign. Although the earlier
Elizabethan succession controversy has long commanded scholarly
attention, the later period has suffered from relative obscurity.
This book remedies the situation. Taking a thematic and
interdisciplinary approach, individual essays demonstrate that key
late Elizabethan texts - literary, political and polemical - cannot
be understood without reference to the succession. The essays also
reveal how the issue affected court politics, lay at the heart of
religious disputes, stimulated constitutional innovation, and
shaped foreign relations. By situating the topic within its
historiographical and chronological contexts, the editors offer a
novel account of the whole reign. Interdisciplinary in scope and
spanning the crucial transition from the Tudors to the Stuarts, the
book will be indispensable to scholars and students of early modern
British and Irish history, literature and religion. -- .
