Sobre IBD

Offering fresh interpretations of exile in the English Revolution and Restoration, this study explores the personal, political and religious ramifications of displacement, and shines a torch on the rich variety of literary modes through which it is articulated. Examining previously unstudied as well as canonical writings, it challenges conventional paradigms positing neat dividing lines of chronology, geography and allegiance in this seminal period of British and American history.
