Description
This is the first comprehensive study of the revival and appropriation of the Roman triumph from the 1580s to the 1650s.
English versions of the triumph included ceremonial re-enactments, poetic or pictorial representations, and stage performances.
As well as many non-canonical writers, Spenser, Marlowe, Shakespeare, Marvell, and Milton all produced versions.
The book includes an original survey of ancient literary models and the work of humanist antiquarians, and shows how all its texts are implicated in contemporary political conflicts and discourses.
