In this video, Jim and Susan discuss another form of early modern literature: the literary letter. As you watch the video it might be useful to reflect on your own letter-writing practices and consider some of the following questions:

To what extent do you think of letters as literature?
How might letters be different or similar to other forms of literature (e.g. poems and plays)?
How do you think these letters might aid us in thinking about the role and representation of the country house in early modern literature?
