| | Prince Rupert of the Rhine 1619-82 |
| | Born at Prague in Bohemia on 17 December 1619, Prince Rupert was the third son of Charles I's sister Elizabeth (the "Winter Queen") by her marriage to Frederick V, Elector of the Palatinate. | | | In November 1644, Rupert was appointed Captain-General of the Royalist army. | | | His charisma had an inspirational effect on the Royalist cause, but his youthful arrogance and foreign manners soon alienated many of the King's senior advisors, particularly as he was exempted from taking orders from anyone but King Charles himself. |

| | Wilcher begins with the late 1620s and 1630s, leading up to the Bishops' Wars, and immediately finds literary dissent among Royalist poets such as Thomas Carew, who articulated his own distancing from the ideals of a court system and the political and personal preferences of its monarch. | | | This strain was particularly in evidence at the Royalist headquarters at Oxford in the early 1640s. | | | This book is also a survey of the development of dissent within the Royalist party, particularly towards Charles I and the problems inherent in his kingship. |

| | [EMLS 05-1 (May, 1999): 9.1-5 (Review of Royalism and Poetry |
| | Loxley argues that from 1641 until the end of the civil wars royalist poets increasingly began to depict the king in terms of his limited spatial presence, as, with Charles's foregoing of London, parliament could claim the symbolic authority of the kingdom's capital. | | | Even during the events leading up to Charles's withdrawal from London, Loxley identifies a more militaristic idiom in royalist verse, a mobilisation of poetic forms in the king's cause -- a poetry of praise became envisaged as an act of war. | | | Loxley's view of a clearly defined enemy in royalist writing may be a bit too easy, but his examination of the poetic forms that were deployed in a rhetorical battle over the right reading of the royal image, one which royalist panegyric and epideictic had itself constructed, leads to some interesting insights. |
