Book English Political Thought

Download or read book English Political Thought written by J. W. Allen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1938. A study of the political doctrines and events which led to a hardening of lines between the Royalists and the Parliamentarians. "From the March of 1604, when James I met his first Parliament to the assembly of the Long Parliament in November 1640, there was going on a conflict between irreconcilable views concerning the constitution of government in England. It was concerned with what had been and with what was and, necessarily, with what should be." By 1640 the question soon would be "how stable government could ever again be established . . . But the confusion, if it produced little else of value, produced a ferment of thought." And this ferment has had an incalculable effect on the centuries which have followed. Among the many topics discussed, on the basis of firm knowledge and with reasonableness, are the King and the nature of his claim, the parliamentary opposition and its conceptions and the possibility of compromise, the approach to Toleration, Puritanism and the Laudian Church, and the final collapse of government.

  • Author : J.P. Sommerville
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2014-06-17
  • ISBN : 1317882083
  • Pages : 319 pages

Download or read book Royalists and Patriots written by J.P. Sommerville and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-known book reasserts the central importance of political and religious ideology in the origins of the English Civil War. Recent historiography has concentrated on its social and economic causes: Sommerville reminds us what the people of the time thought they were fighting about. Examining the main political theories in c.17th England - the Divine Right of Kings, government by consent, and the ancient constitution - he considers their impact on actual events. He draws on major political thinkers like Hobbes and Locke, but also on lesser but more representative figures, to explore what was new in these ideas and what was merely the common currency of the age. This major new edition incorporates all the latest thinking on the subject.

Book excerpt: The Politics of the Ancient Constitution is a close examination of the political ideas of common lawyers in early Stuart England, and includes important surveys of the ideas of Sir Edward Coke and John Selden. It provides an original interpretation of the lawyers' theory of the ancient constitution and on this basis it provides a novel interpretation of the basic structure of political thought and ideology in pre-Civil War England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Revel  Riot  and Rebellion

    Book Details:
  • Author : David Underdown
  • Publisher : Oxford [Oxfordshire] : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1985
  • ISBN : 9780192851932
  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book Revel Riot and Rebellion written by David Underdown and published by Oxford [Oxfordshire] : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What have maypoles, charivari processions, and stoolball matches to do with the English Civil War? A great deal, argues David Underdown. Using three western counties as a case-study, he shows that the war was neither a dispute confined to the elite nor a class struggle of the 'middling sort' against a discredited aristocracy. It was in fact the result of profound disagreements among people of all social levels about the moral basis of their communities; commoners as well as ruler held strong opinions about order and governance. But these opinions varied from place to place, and through a pioneering synthesis of social history and popular culture, Underdown relates political diversity to cultural diversity, and shows that local difference in popular allegiance in the Civil War coincided with regional contrast in the traditional festive culture. The book is thus an important reinterpretation of both the English Revolution and the relationship between society, politics, andculture in the seventeenth century.
