Katarzyna Lecky investigates how early modern British poets paid by the state adapted inclusive modes of nationhood charted by inexpensive, small-format maps. She explores chapbooks alongside portable cartography, to examine the ways in which canonical writers represented the nation as the property of the commonwealth rather than the Crown.
