Criticism and Compliment: The Politics of Literature in the England of Charles I - Cambridge Studies in Early Modern British History
Kevin Sharpe
Criticism and Compliment examines the poems, plays and masques of the three figures who succeeded Ben Jonson as authors of court entertainments in the England of Charles I. The courtly literature of Caroline England has been dismissed by critics and characterised by historians as propaganda for Charles I's absolutism penned by sycophantic hirelings.
