Ecclesiastical faction, censorship, and the rhetoric of silence. 330 $aThis 2001 book examines the ways in which books were produced, read and received during the reign of King James I. It challenges prevailing attitudes that press censorship in Jacobean England differed little from either the 'whole machinery of control' enacted by the Court of Star Chamber under Elizabeth or the draconian campaign implemented by Archbishop Laud, during the reign of Charles I. Cyndia Clegg, building on her earlier study Press Censorship in Elizabethan England, contends that although the principal mechanisms for controlling the press altered little between 1558 and 1603, the actual practice of censorship under King James I varied significantly from Elizabethan practice. The book combines historical analysis of documents with literary reading of censored texts and exposes the kinds of tensions that really mattered in Jacobean culture. It will be an invaluable resource for literary scholars and historians alike. 606 $aFreedom of the press$zEngland$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aPress$zEngland$xHistory$y16th century 615 0$aFreedom of the press$xHistory 615 0$aPress$xHistory 676 $a323.44/5/094209031 700 $aClegg$b Cyndia Susan$0317632 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822284903321 996 $aPress censorship in Jacobean England$94018938 997 $aUNINA
