Summary

The Civil War and Interregnum have usually been marginalized as a literary period. This study shows that these central years of the 17th century constituted a turning point not only in the political, social and religious history but in literary genre, the use of language and its meaning.

Smith, Nigel: -

Nigel Smith has been a journalist, busker, TV comedy producer and scriptwriter, winning an award for his BBC 4 radio comedy, VENT. More importantly, he has been - and still is - an embarrassing Dad. Much like Nathalia Buttface, his three children are continually mortified by his ill-advised trousers, comedic hats, low-quality jokes, poorly chosen motor vehicles, unique sense of direction and unfortunate ukulele playing.
