Taking as its starting point the fundamental ambivalence of the Augustan concept the author studies canonical and non-canonical literature and uncovers the 'four nations' literary history of the period defined in terms of a struggle for control of the language of authority between Jacobite and Hanoverian writers. This struggle is seen to have crystallized Irish and Scottish opposition to the British state. The Jacobite cause generated powerful popular literature and the sources explored include ballads, broadsides and writing in Scots, Irish, Welsh and Gaelic. The author concludes that the literary history we inherit is built on the political outcome of the Revolution of 1688.Cambridge studies in eighteenth-century English literature and thought ;23.Poetry & Jacobite Politics in Eighteenth-Century Britain & IrelandEnglish literature18th centuryHistory and criticismTheory, etcPolitics and literatureGreat BritainHistory18th centuryPopular literatureGreat BritainHistory and criticismPolitics and literatureIrelandHistory18th centuryPopular literatureIrelandHistory and criticismCeltic literatureHistory and criticismCanon (Literature)Great BritainPolitics and government18th centuryIrelandPolitics and government18th centuryEnglish literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.Politics and literatureHistoryPopular literatureHistory and criticism.Politics and literatureHistoryPopular literatureHistory and criticism.Celtic literatureHistory and criticism.Canon (Literature)820.9/005Pittock Murray857099UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996248216303316Poetry and Jacobite politics in eighteenth-century Britain and Ireland2300862UNISAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
