Cover of Royalist Identities (PDF)

Royalist Identities shifts the emphasis from the question ‘What is Royalism?’ to ‘What did Royalism want to be?’ The texts analyzed show how Royalism was concerned with the construction of a set of binary roles and behavioural models designed to perpetuate a certain paradigm of social stability. de Groot deploys theories of identity to analyze the literature and culture of this important period- including the works of Milton, Marvell, Herrick and Cowley, amongst others – and in particular to discuss the formation and construction of an ideologically inflected cultural and social identity.
