This book was released on 2020 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume are reprinted for convenient reference more than ninety documents which are "intended to serve either as a basis for the study of the constitutional history of an important period, or as a companion to the political history of the time." With the exception of four, mentioned in the preface, they are taken from books that are beyond the reach of most students unless they have access to large and well-equipped libraries The whole is prefaced by a concise account of the period, so that we have at hand what might be compared to the finder on a telescope. Among the papers are the following, of which we have often heard, and which we can here examine that they may throw light upon our understanding of the history of the period : The Declaration of Sports, the Scottish National Covenant, the Root and Branch Petition, the Solemn League and Covenant, the Self-denying Ordinance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitutional Documents of the Puritan Revolution: 1625 1660 The documents in this volume are intended to serve either as a basis for the study of the Constitutional History of an important period, or as a companion to the Political History of the time. By far the greater number of them are printed in books which, though commonly to be found in large libraries, are, on account of their size and expense, not readily accessible to students in general. The MS. of the Constitutional Bill of the first Protectorate Parliament, in the handwriting of John Browne, Clerk of the Parliaments, is preserved at Stanford Hall in the possession of Lord Braye, with whoso kind permission the copy used in this volume has been taken. It is possible that a great part of the document might. have been recovered from the entries of clauses and amendments in tho Journals of the House of Commons, but, as far as I know, this is tho only complete copy in existence. The documents in Part I of the present edition have have been added at the suggestion of Professor Prothero, who very generously placed at my disposal the copies he had made with the intention of adding them to his own Statutes and other Constitutional Documents illustrative of the reigns of Elizabeth and James I (Clarendon Press, 1894). Though the Navigation Act of the Commonwealth has no claim to a place amongst Constitutional Documents, it is of sufficient importance to be printed in tho Appendix.

Download or read book Puritan Political Ideas written by Edmund S. Morgan and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique collection, noted historian Edmund Morgan focuses upon three ideas that lay at the root of Puritan political theory and have had a continuing significance in our history: calling, covenant, and the separate spheres of church and state. The selections show the origin of these ideas in the writings of the early English Puritans before the colonization of America, in seventeenth century New England, and finally in new contexts in the eighteenth century. One may read these documents as primary sources of Puritan thought per se, as sources of American intellectual history, or as sources of a political theory that flowered in the early years of the new constitutional republic. --from the Foreword

Download or read book The Long Argument written by Stephen Foster and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this wide-ranging study Stephen Foster explores Puritanism in England and America from its roots in the Elizabethan era to the end of the seventeenth century. Focusing on Puritanism as a cultural and political phenomenon as well as a religious movement, Foster addresses parallel developments on both sides of the Atlantic and firmly embeds New England Puritanism within its English context. He provides not only an elaborate critque of current interpretations of Puritan ideology but also an original and insightful portrayal of its dynamism. According to Foster, Puritanism represented a loose and incomplete alliance of progressive Protestants, lay and clerical, aristocratic and humble, who never decided whether they were the vanguard or the remnant. Indeed, in Foster's analysis, changes in New England Puritanism after the first decades of settlement did not indicate secularization and decline but instead were part of a pattern of change, conflict, and accomodation that had begun in England. He views the Puritans' own claims of declension as partisan propositions in an internal controversy as old as the Puritan movement itself. The result of these stresses and adaptations, he argues, was continued vitality in American Puritanism during the second half of the seventeenth century. Foster draws insights from a broad range of souces in England and America, including sermons, diaries, spiritual autobiographies, and colony, town, and court records. Moreover, his presentation of the history of the English and American Puritan movements in tandem brings out the fatal flaws of the former as well as the modest but essential strengths of the latter.

Download or read book Liberty and Reformation in the Puritan Revolution written by William Haller and published by . This book was released on 1955 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Treating revolutionary Puritanism as a great dynamic force, this book picks up where the author's famous The Rise of Puritanism left off, and tells the story of the Puritan argument for freedom and reform from the convening of parliament in 1640 to the fall of the monarchy and the disruption of the church in 1649. When Puritan preachers called upon parliament to cast off the authority of bishops and erect a godly preaching ministry throughout the realm, parliament asked the preachers to draft a scheme of reformation by free discussion. Free discussion, however, led to disagreement about the nature and extent of reform intended. Soon both the press and public became involved in the argument. Men of varying interests, such as William Walwyn and John Milton, began raising questions as to the scope and function of liberty within society--of liberty of conscience, of thought and expression, of preaching and the press, of religious and political association, of legal status, of economic enterprise and social opportunity. The effect was to set Puritans at odds among themselves. The discussion was taken up by unorthodox preachers like John Goodwin, by popular agitators and party organizers like Lilburne, and by the Army. The question became one of how, with the church disrupted, to establish and maintain spiritual unity and constitutional order in the community."--Back book cover.
Download or read book The Revolution of the Saints written by Michael Walzer and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Revolution of the Saints is a study, both historical and sociological, of the radical political response of the Puritans to disorder. It interprets and analyzes Calvinism as the first modern expression of an unremitting determination to transform on the basis of an ideology the existing political and moral order. Michael Walzer examines in detail the circumstances and ideological options of the Puritan intelligentsia and gentry. He sees Puritanism, in sharp contrast to some generally accepted views, as the political theory of intellectuals and gentlemen attempting to create a new government and society.
Download or read book Puritanism and Liberty written by A. S. P. Woodhouse and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Puritanism and Liberty: Being the Army Debates, 1647-9, From the Clarke Manuscripts With Supplementary Documents The second edition has been occasioned by a continued demand for the book after the first edition was exhausted (by sales, not by war damage). It has been produced by photographic process: and this, while permitting the correction of misprints, has pre cluded extensive revision. Fortunately, no such revision seems necessary. Whatever is required can be added in the compass of this page. The purpose of the Introduction has not been misapprehended; but it may be well to state here quite definitely that it does not essay a complete explanation, or final synthesis, of the political, economic, and religious causes at work in the Puritan Revolution, but simply an exploration of the religious background of Puritan ideology, which has been too little considered and understood, and without which no final synthesis is possible. Here, principally, the Introduction broke new ground, and (so far as I am aware) it has not been superseded.
