abstract: The Ways of God and the Way of the World In this lecture course the attempt will be made to provide an introduction to, and survey of, seventeenth-century English literature by discussing a number of works which focus, quite literally, on either "God" or "The World", or both. The works thus point up the antagonisms and divides characteristic of the century of the Revolution, the Civil War, and the Restoration, which saw, almost simultaneously, the most radical religious fervour and the discovery of the world in every sense of the word. Milton’s Paradise Lost (1667), which aims "to justify the ways of God to men", will provide a focus of attention; accordingly, participants should have read at least Books 1, 4 and 10. In addition, God and the world will be represented by a selection of Metaphysical and Cavalier poetry (by Donne, Herbert, Herrick, Marvell and others; texts will be made available by email and on Moodle), as well as by John Bunyan’s immensely influential The Pilgrim’s Progress (1678) and by the most widely acclaimed Restoration comedy, William Congreve’s The Way of the World (1700). Since we will be concerned with literary texts as well as with the political, religious and cultural situation of 17th-century England, credit may also be earned for the advanced module in cultural studies.
