Produktbeschreibung
This book presents a series of cutting-edge studies by established and rising authorities in the field, providing a powerful discourse on the events, crises, and changes that electrified mid-seventeenth-century England. Compiled in honour of one of the most respected scholars of early modern England, Clive Holmes, this volume considers themes that stand at the centre of current approaches to seventeenth-century studies: the relations between language, ideas, and political actors; the limitations of central government; and the powerful role of religious belief in public affairs. Investigative and analytical, it is valuable reading for all scholars of England's revolutionary period.
