Varieties of Seventeenth- and Early Eighteenth-Century English Radicalism in Context (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Hessayon, Ariel

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The essays in this collection explore significant questions regarding the terms 'radical' and 'radicalism' in early modern England. They investigate whether we can speak of a radical tradition, and whether radicalism was a local, national or transnational phenomenon. It looks at the role of migration and exchange of ideas, images and texts in the history of supposedly radical events, ideologies and movements (or moments). Offering a timely reassessment of the subject, it reflects the latest research on seventeenth-century British and Irish radicalism.
