초록
Donne is generally considered as an advocate of the idea that King James' monarchial absolutism that the king's power derived from God alone. On the contrary, Milton is recognized as a pioneer of republicanism who defended the republican government for the legitimacy of the execution of King Charles. Hence Donne and Milton are perceived to be representing two contrasting political thoughts of the Renaissance England. This paper aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the political ideas of Donne and Milton through study of their literary works. Donne published a wide range of prose on religious and political questions. While he aligned his political and religious ideas with James I on majority of the issues, recent literary studies reveal a different side of Donne's ideas. Although not explicitly, it can be analysed that Donne has expressed ambivalent and subversive ideas that contradict the ideas of James I. On another hand, it can be observed that Milton's republican ideas also gradually developed. For example, Milton left room for non-tyrannical monarchy in the The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates, as he opposed tyranny, not the kingship itself. However, later in 1660 when he published The Ready and Easy Way to Establish a Free Commonwealth, Milton confronted rule by any single person, which is not confined to tyranny but includes monarchy in general. Nevertheless, Milton still expressed aristocratic bias in his republican ideas.
Abstract
Donne is generally considered as an advocate of the idea that King James' monarchial absolutism that the king's power derived from God alone. On the contrary, Milton is recognized as a pioneer of republicanism who defended the republican government for the legitimacy of the execution of King Charles. Hence Donne and Milton are perceived to be representing two contrasting political thoughts of the Renaissance England. This paper aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the political ideas of Donne and Milton through study of their literary works. Donne published a wide range of prose on religious and political questions. While he aligned his political and religious ideas with James I on majority of the issues, recent literary studies reveal a different side of Donne's ideas. Although not explicitly, it can be analysed that Donne has expressed ambivalent and subversive ideas that contradict the ideas of James I. On another hand, it can be observed that Milton's republican ideas also gradually developed. For example, Milton left room for non-tyrannical monarchy in the The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates, as he opposed tyranny, not the kingship itself. However, later in 1660 when he published The Ready and Easy Way to Establish a Free Commonwealth, Milton confronted rule by any single person, which is not confined to tyranny but includes monarchy in general. Nevertheless, Milton still expressed aristocratic bias in his republican ideas.
