There is nothing quite like this in the literature on utopian literature. It is focused on a short era, 1603-1670, and it dwells on many texts, persons, and events that have long since been forgotten. But it captures a movement of thought that still has relevance today, turning its material into a story of almost epic scope. (The author himself indicates that the story of the rise and decline of the utopian imagination in the seventeenth century is something of a tragedy.) Although this book is highly theoretical, very lit-crit and not entirely jargon-free, it is very readable. This text moves the reader along through matters arcane, familiar, and dramatic, explaining how the utopian impulse in seventeenth-century England anticipated both the great achievements and the great failings of modernity. The material on Francis Bacon alone is worth the price of admission, explaining how Bacon's thought is articulated through a host of competing subject positions.
