A collection of poems by a pivotal figure in the literary culture of Stuart England.

William Herbert, Third Earl of Pembroke, was a pivotal figure in the literary and political cultures of Stuart England. He wrote poetry primarily for social occasions: A debate with a friend, seductions or apologies to beloveds, or support for a deceased political ally. This volume collects his work along with an introduction, detailed notes, and other apparatus that explore the networks in which the poems circulated, the interpretive contexts suggested in miscellanies, and alternative readings revealed through scribal variants. The book also features five contemporary musical settings.

Recenzii

"This fine, scholarly edition will bring into prominence a poet who exemplifies the way that poetry connects multiple networks across the seventeenth century. The editorial and contextual work is meticulous and constantly illuminating."

 

"This is a magnificent modern edition of poetry by William Herbert. It is an invaluable addition to the literary canon and its full scholarly apparatus, including musical scores by Lawes and Dowland, reveals the complex layers of meaning the poems held when they were written, rewritten, read and sung. By taking time to analyse the communities who participated in the scribal networks that reproduced the poems, the editors offer fascinating insights into the value of miscellanies and the role of scribes."
