This volume continues the publication of Professor Elton's collected papers on topics in the history of Tudor and Stuart England. All appeared between 1973 and 1981. As before, they are reprinted exactly as originally published, with corrections and additions in footnotes. They include the author's four presidential addresses to the Royal Historical Society and bring together his preliminary findings in the history of Parliament and its records. Several of them, which appeared in various collections and Festschriften, have been difficult to find, and some are taken from locations in Germany and the United States unfamiliar to English readers. The eight lengthy reviews here republished examine some of the major questions in the history of the age and throw light on the principles of investigation which underlie the author's own research.

Preface; Acknowledgments; Abbreviations; Part I. Papers: 33. Tudor government: the points of contact; 34. The materials of Parliamentary history; 35. parliament in the sixteenth century: functions and fortunes; 36. Politics and the pilgrimage of grace; 37.
