Jacobean Period (1 Jan 1603 Jahr – 1 Jan 1625 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

The Jacobean period was full of visual and literary arts during the reign of James I of England (1603-1625). The distinctions between the early Jacobean and the preceding Elizabethan styles are subtle ones, often merely a question of degree, for although the dynasty changed, there was no distinct stylistic transition. It was during the Jacobean period that the designer Inigo Jones introduced the first fully realized Renaissance classical style of architecture into England with his design of the Banqueting House, in Whitehall, London (1619–1622). In literature, too, many themes and patterns were carried over from the preceding Elizabethan era. The monumental prose achievement of the era was the great King James version of the Bible, which first appeared in 1611. Jacob was the king of England during the Enlightenment.
