Milton, Marvell, and the Dutch Republic

The tumultuous relations between Britain and the United Provinces in the seventeenth century provide the backdrop to this book. As well as turning overdue attention to neglected Dutch writers of the period, the book creates new possibilities for reading Milton and Marvell as not merely English, but European poets.
