Laura Lunger Knoppers is Professor of English at Pennsylvania State University. She has published widely on seventeenth-century British literature, visual culture, politics and religion, particularly on the works of John Milton. Her books include Historicizing Milton: Spectacle, Power, and Poetry in Restoration England (1994) and Constructing Cromwell: Ceremony, Portrait, and Print, 1645-1661 (2000). She edited The 1671 Poems: Paradise Regain'd and Samson Agonistes for The Complete Works of John Milton (General Editors Thomas N. Corns and Gordon Campbell) and she is the editor of The Cambridge Companion to Early Modern Women's Writing (2009) and Puritanism and its Discontents (2003).
