With contributions from leading cultural practitioners and scholars, this book contemplates the influence of New Elizabethanism from the Coronation festivities to the reinternment of Richard III in 2015, from the ascent of Everest on the eve of the Coronation to the investiture of Prince Charles as Prince of Wales, from the institutionalization of the National Theatre to the Olympics of 2012. In so doing, it exposes the significance of an overlooked cultural nationalism that continues to dominate contemporary constructions of modern national identity, history and performance. 410 0$aInternational library of twentieth century history ;$v90. 606 $aNational characteristics, English 606 $aNew Elizabethanism 606 $2Social & cultural history 607 $aGreat Britain$xCivilization$y1945- 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yElizabeth II, 1952- 607 $aGreat Britain$xSocial life and customs$y1945- 615 0$aNational characteristics, English. 615 0$aNew Elizabethanism. 676 $a941.085 702 $aGossedge$b Rob 702 $aMorra$b Irene$f1975- 801 0$bYDX 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150330603321 996 $aThe new Elizabethan age$92958997 997 $aUNINA
