The Oxford Handbook of Andrew Marvell is the most comprehensive and informative collection of essays ever assembled dealing with the life and writings of the poet and politician Andrew Marvell (1621-78). Like his friend and colleague John Milton, Marvell is now seen as a dominant figure in the literary landscape of the mid-seventeenth century, producing a stunning oeuvre of poetry and prose either side of the Restoration. In the 1640s and 1650s he was the author of hypercanonical lyrics like 'To His Coy Mistress' and 'The Garden' as well as three epoch-defining poems about Oliver Cromwell. After 1660 he virtually invented the verse genre of state satire as well as becoming the most influential prose satirist of the day--in the process forging a long-lived reputation as an incorruptible patriot. Although Marvell himself was an intensely private and self-contained character, whose literary, religious, and political commitments are notoriously difficult to discern, the interdisciplinary contributions by an array of experts in the fields of seventeenth-century literature, history, and politics gathered together in the Handbook constitute a decisive step forward in our understanding of him. They offer a fully-rounded account of his life and writings, individual readings of his key works, considerations of his relations with his major contemporaries, and surveys of his rich and varied afterlives. Informed by the wealth of editorial and biographical work on Marvell that has been produced in the last twenty years, the volume is both a conspectus of the state of the art in Marvell studies and the springboard for future research.

Andrew Marvell. Diplomat. Treaty negotiator. Career politician. Tutor to the children of the rich and famous. Political commentator. Political scientist. Religious thinker. Satirist. Moralist.Oh, and I almost forgot- Poet.As a student, or perhaps a teacher of English Literature, it will be this element of the man that concerns and interests you most. But if, right now, you are feeling as concerned as interested - then take heart: this guide aims to help change all that! Because of the line length of particular poems, and because of what may at first seem like challenging word choices, many people come reluctantly to Marvell. It is too difficult; his poems are 'too clever'; they are soaked in obscure literary traditions. It is all too old-hat.But! In this short guide I aim to show you that the reverse is true. Marvell can be straightforward and rewarding to read, when we approach him in a disciplined way. The poetry of this clever man is filled with insights into his own times, tempered with irony. Both his insights and his irony are just as relevant to us and our times, too. Like my other Gavin's Guides, this book aims to help you come to admire the author AND raise your exam grade. Right now, Marvell is a chosen text for OCR A-Level. Exam questions ask candidates to compare Marvell with another text. This means you are free to choose which Marvell poems you study. However, examiners have inferred that the shorter, lyrical poems are not enough. So here I tackle some of the big guns!The poems under the microscope in this volume are:Tom May's Death An Epitaph upon------Upon the Death of the Lord HastingsAn Elegy upon the Death of My Lord Francis VilliersAn Horatian Ode upon Cromwell's Return from Ireland The First Anniversary of the Government under His Highness the Lord ProtectorA Poem upon the Death of His Late Highness the Lord ProtectorCome with me on the journey of exploring Marvell's methods and meanings, and you'll be fascinated, too. The First Anniversary of the Government under His Highness the Lord Protector A Poem upon the Death of His Late Highness the Lord Protector Together with my sections on 'Exam Technique' and 'What makes Marvell such a great poet' these poems will provide enough insight to answer exam questions fully. This is a Gavin's Guide Extra - it is aimed at able pupils and their teachers.About the author:Gavin Smithers is a private tutor, covering the north Cotswolds.
