Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Introduction -- 1. The look of power -- 2. Utopian experimentalism, 1620-1638 -- 3. "Reformation" and "desolation" : the new horizons of the 1640s -- 4. Out of the "true nothing", 1649-1653 -- 5. From constitutionalism to aestheticization, 1654-1670 -- Notes -- Index.

Hundreds of writers in the English-speaking world of the seventeenth-century imagined alternative ideal societies. Sometimes they did so by exploring fanciful territories, such as the world in the moon or the nations of the Antipodes; but sometimes they composed serious disquisitions about the here and now, proposing how England or its nascent colonies could be conceived of as an 'Oceana,' or a New Jerusalem. This book provides a comprehensive view of the operations of the utopian imagination in literature from 1603 to the 1660s. Appealing to social theorists, literary critics, and political and cultural historians, this volume revises prevailing notions of the languages of hope and social dreaming in the making of British modernity during a century of political and intellectual upheaval.
