Claire McEachern's 1996 study examines the formation of English national identity during the early modern period. She shows how the representation of faith, fatherland and crown in Tudor Texts continually personified English political institutions. McEachern examines the way in which the English nation was inscribed as an imaginary force in the work of Spenser, Shakespeare and Drayton.
