Book The Political History of England  Vol  2

Download or read book The Political History of England Vol 2 written by Friedrich von Raumer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Political History of England, Vol. 2: During the 16th, 17th, and 18th Centuries From the Breaking out of the Disturbances in Scotland to the Opening of the Long Parliament. (1637 - 1640.) All the above mentioned errors, complaints, and misunderstandings would scarcely have produced important consequences in England, or have caused more violent explosions, if Charles had understood how to acquire love and confidence in Scotland, his hereditary kingdom. That we may the better understand and appreciate the subsequent relations and events, it is necessary to bear in mind some particulars of the Constitution, in Church and State, of that country. The Scotch Parliament had long consisted of three estates, the members of which, however, voted promiscuously together, and decided according to the majority. Whether resolutions of the estates had the force of laws, without the royal sanction, may be much doubted; but the King certainly had no veto in the modern sense of the expression.

Book Censorship and Conflict in Seventeenth Century England

Download or read book Censorship and Conflict in Seventeenth Century England written by Randy Robertson and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Censorship profoundly affected early modern writing. Censorship and Conflict in Seventeenth-Century England offers a detailed picture of early modern censorship and investigates the pressures that censorship exerted on seventeenth-century authors, printers, and publishers. In the 1600s, Britain witnessed a civil war, the judicial execution of a king, the restoration of his son, and an unremitting struggle among crown, parliament, and people for sovereignty and the right to define “liberty and property.” This battle, sometimes subtle, sometimes bloody, entailed a struggle for the control of language and representation. Robertson offers a richly detailed study of this “censorship contest” and of the craft that writers employed to outflank the licensers. He argues that for most parties, victory, not diplomacy or consensus, was the ultimate goal. This book differs from most recent works in analyzing both the mechanics of early modern censorship and the poetics that the licensing system produced—the forms and pressures of self-censorship. Among the issues that Robertson addresses in this book are the workings of the licensing machinery, the designs of art and obliquity under a regime of censorship, and the involutions of authorship attendant on anonymity.
