About the book
"James VI of Scotland and I of England participated in the burgeoning literary culture of the Renaissance, not only as a monarch and patron, but as an author in his own right, publishing extensively in a number of different genres over four decades. As the first monograph devoted to James as an author, this book offers a perspective on his reigns in Scotland and England, and also on the interrelationship of authorship and authority, literature and politics in the Renaissance. Rickard argues that, despite the King's best efforts to the contrary, his writings expose the tensions and contradictions between authorship and authority."--Jacket.
