He argues that the most influential and incisive political satire in this period may be found in manuscript libels, scurrilous pamphlets and a range of other material written and circulated under the threat of censorship. These are the unauthorised texts of early Stuart England. From his analysis of these texts, McRae argues that satire, as the pre-eminent literary mode of discrimination and stigmatisation, helped people make sense of the confusing political conditions of the early Stuart era. It did so partly through personal attacks and partly also through sophisticated interventions into ongoing political and ideological debates. In such forms satire provided resources through which contemporary writers could define new models of political identity and construct new discourses of dissent. This book wil be of interest to political and literary historians alike. 517 3 $aLiterature, Satire & the Early Stuart State 606 $aSatire, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish prose literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPolitics and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aLiterature and state$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yEarly Stuarts, 1603-1649$xHistoriography 615 0$aSatire, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish prose literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and state$xHistory 676 $a827/.409358 700 $aMcRae$b Andrew$01522401 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784410303321 996 $aLiterature, satire, and the early Stuart state$93762061 997 $aUNINA
