This title provides an historical biography of the multi-faceted and controversial Sir John Harington of Kelston, courtier, place-seeker, writer and would-be Bishop of Dublin, who lived in times euphemistically described by contemporaries as 'tricky'.
First inclusive edition, and an essay never published before, by the talented Elizabethan courtier.
Sir John Harington (1560-1612) has long been recognized as one of the most colorful and engaging figures at the English Renaissance court. Godson of Queen Elizabeth, translator of Ariosto, and inventor of the water-closet, he was also a lively writer in a wide variety of modes, and an acute commentator on his times. Combining detailed readings and first-hand historical research, this study reconstructs the complex, often devious agenda that Harington wrote into his books as he customized them for specific individuals and occasions.
Provides a comprehensive overview for both beginning and advanced students of satiric forms from ancient poetry to contemporary digital media.
