Waller's Machiavellian Cromwell: The Imperial Argument Of A Panegyrick To My Lord Protector, Timothy Raylor

Faculty Work

Recent work on Waller’s Panegyrick to my Lord Protector has focused on its e¡ort to dress Cromwell in Augustan garb to translate his power into authority over a quiescent populace. Drawing on recently discovered evidence about the poem’s composition, about Waller’s reading of Machiavelli, and about his association with a fellow Buckinghamshire gentleman and MP, Sir William Drake (a figure known to have been influenced by Machiavelli), this article suggests that Augustan rhetoric forms only one strand in a discursive tapestry dominated by a Machiavellian argument for England’s imperial expansion.
