The poem is first set in the context of Marvell's poetry and his public career in the period between 1637 and 1660. The article then identifies and analyses three main themes of "The First Anniversary": the notion of a new aeon starting with Cromwell's rule and the apocalyptical imagery related to his Protectorate, the concept of his power and authority between liberty and tyranny, and the relation between harmony established by Cromwell and the classical Pythagorean harmonious lore. The author argues that the imagery Marvell uses to describe the nature of the regime (especially the concept of Cromwell's "no-kingship") shows a deeply paradoxical structure, which uncovers the frailty and insecurity of Cromwell's dictatorship as well as the circular logic of its justification.
