Englishness and National Culture

Discover the intricate layers of Englishness in "Englishness and National Culture" by Anton Easthorpe, published by Taylor & Francis Ltd in 1998. This compelling paperback explores the concept of Englishness as a dynamic series of shared discourses that have evolved from the 17th century to the present day. With 254 pages of insightful analysis, Easthorpe argues that contemporary writers, historians, and comedians draw upon the rich voice of the empiricist tradition, creating a continuity that shapes national identity. This thought-provoking work is essential for anyone interested in cultural studies, literature, and the evolution of English national identity. Dive into this engaging examination and uncover the threads that connect past and present in England's cultural narrative.
