Download or read book Theater of State written by Chris Kyle and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the expansion and creation of new public spheres in and around Parliament in the early Stuart period. It focuses on two closely interconnected narratives: the changing nature of communication and discourse within parliamentary chambers and the interaction of Parliament with the wider world of political dialogue and the dissemination of information. Concentrating on the rapidly changing practices of Parliament in print culture, rhetorical strategy, and lobbying during the 1620s, this book demonstrates that Parliament not only moved toward the center stage of politics but also became the center of the post-Reformation public sphere. Theater of State begins by examining the noise of politics inside Parliament, arguing that the House of Commons increasingly became a place of noisy, hotly contested speech. It then turns to the material conditions of note-taking in Parliament and how and the public became aware of parliamentary debates. The book concludes by examining practices of lobbying, intersections of the public with Parliament within Westminster Palace, and Parliament's expanding print culture. The author argues overall that the Crown dispensed with Parliament because it was too powerful and too popular.

Book Proceedings in Parliament  1614  House of Commons

Download or read book Proceedings in Parliament 1614 House of Commons written by England and Wales. Parliament. House of Commons and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 1988 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An edition of the extant manuscripts of proceedings in the Lower House of the English parliament of 1614, prefaced by a critical introduction to the texts and a description of source materials. The vol. includes 8 appendixes, one of which is a list of returns that reveals the full membership of the House of Commons in 1614. Until recently historians believed that apart from the official Journal of the House of Commons no complete account of the 1614 assembly survived. Immediately after the close of the session 4 members were imprisoned in the Tower for remarks madeabout the crown, and the Privy Council ordered the papers and notes of others burned. To protect the identity of the author any private diary of the session retained as a personal record had to have been well hidden. The discovery in the Midlands of an anonymous diary subsequently purchased by the Kenneth Spencer Research Library at the U. of Kansas altered this picture and makes possible for the first time, close to 400 years after the event, a detailed study of the proceedings in that assembly. Besides the Kansas diary one other small account of debates that year from a manuscript in Trinity College, Cambridge, and several folios of proceedings from Petyt MS, 538/11 in the Inner Temple Library, as well as an unpublished Crown Office list of returns are included in the vol. The manuscript Commons Journal and MS. Add. 48, 101 have been re-edited with the accounts mentioned above, making accessible in one place all of the known accounts of the session. Illus.
