'''Jacobean''' refers to the reign of [[James I]] of [[England]] who ruled from the death of [[Elizabeth I]] in 1603 to his own death in 1625. Whilst some of the culture of his reign was a follow through of the previous reign – [[Shakespeare]] for example - some of the great names in English literature and music flourished at this time. [[John Donne]]  (1572-1631), [[Ben Jonson]] (1572-1367) wrote their greatest works during the period; the lutenist and composer [[John Dowland]] (1563-1626) was the pre-eminent composer of his kind in [[Europe]].
