CHAPTER IX THE REVOLUTIONS However helpful to the cause of absolutism in Government the early consequences of the Reformation were, still the fundamental principles of it, as of the Renaissance, or New Learning, were the direct contradiction of both the principle and practise of the absolute Monarchies. The freedom of individual thought and inquiry was the basis of both these movements, and while it addressed itself to the transformation of letters, art, science, and philosophy in the one case, it sought the like transformation of the religious conscience and the ecclesiastical system in the other. Such a movement could not fail to extend finally to the political system and seek its transformation also. Where the spirit of the Renaissance attacked the Monarchy, the exaggeration of Individual Liberty fostered by it threatened to plunge the state into anarchy. On the other hand, where the real spirit of the Reformation attacked it, the discipline of the religious life and the selfculture produced by it led the whole course of the revolution within safe lines. The contrast offered by the English and German revolutionary movement to that of France and Italy is to be explained chiefly in this way. The Revolution accomplished itself in England a full century before it did in France. We may place the beginning of it as far back as 1620, when King James I entered upon the policy of connecting Spain, the stanch supporter of the Roman Catholic Church, with England both diplomatically and by the marriage of Crown Prince Charles with the Spanish Infanta. King James seems to have fallen under the influence of the Spanish Ambassador, Gondomar, who made him understand that the best way to secure the permanence of the absolute Monarchic system was by...
Download or read book The Concept of Liberty in the Age of the American Revolution written by John Phillip Reid and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Liberty was the most cherished right possessed by English-speaking people in the eighteenth century. It was both an ideal for the guidance of governors and a standard with which to measure the constitutionality of government; both a cause of the American Revolution and a purpose for drafting the United States Constitution; both an inheritance from Great Britain and a reason republican common lawyers continued to study the law of England." As John Philip Reid goes on to make clear, "liberty" did not mean to the eighteenth-century mind what it means today. In the twentieth century, we take for granted certain rights—such as freedom of speech and freedom of the press—with which the state is forbidden to interfere. To the revolutionary generation, liberty was preserved by curbing its excesses. The concept of liberty taught not what the individual was free to do but what the rule of law permitted. Ultimately, liberty was law—the rule of law and the legalism of custom. The British constitution was the charter of liberty because it provided for the rule of law. Drawing on an impressive command of the original materials, Reid traces the eighteenth-century notion of liberty to its source in the English common law. He goes on to show how previously problematic arguments involving the related concepts of licentiousness, slavery, arbitrary power, and property can also be fit into the common-law tradition. Throughout, he focuses on what liberty meant to the people who commented on and attempted to influence public affairs on both sides of the Atlantic. He shows the depth of pride in liberty—English liberty—that pervaded the age, and he also shows the extent—unmatched in any other era or among any other people—to which liberty both guided and motivated political and constitutional action.
