EDITORS COMMENTS
The Frontispiece to An Exact Collection of Choicest Poems and Songs from 1639-1661 is a captivating print that transports us back to the tumultuous times of 17th century England. This engraving, created by an anonymous English artist, offers a glimpse into the political and social climate during the Protectorate era. In this satirical depiction, we witness a scene filled with symbolism and irony. The foreground showcases a gallows, ominously reminding viewers of the consequences faced by those who opposed the ruling powers. Faggots are piled up nearby, ready for burning as part of a bonfire – perhaps representing the suppression of dissenting voices. A group of Puritans can be seen in their distinctive attire, emphasizing their influence on British society at that time. They stand near what appears to be meat hanging from hooks – possibly alluding to their strict dietary restrictions or moralistic beliefs. This artwork also references key events such as the Rump Parliament and Scottish involvement in the Civil War. It serves as both a critique and commentary on these historical moments through its clever use of satire. Overall, this intriguing image captures not only significant aspects of Commonwealth-era England but also highlights tensions between different factions within society during this transformative period known as interregnum.
