Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The life of Michael Drayton, a significant English poet born in 1563, showcases his evolution from early spiritual poetry to celebrated historical works. Key publications include "The Harmony of the Church," which faced censorship, and the pastoral "Idea: The Shepherd's Garland." Drayton also contributed to theatrical works, collaborating with notable playwrights, though only one play survives. His later achievements include the expansive "Poly-Olbion" and the acclaimed "Nimphidia." Despite initial court admiration, his later works received mixed responses. He passed away in 1631 and is interred in Westminster Abbey.
