Dividing the nation and causing massive political change, the
English Civil War remains one of the most decisive and dramatic
conflicts of English history. Lawrence Stone's account of the
factors leading up to the deposition of Charles I in 1642 is widely
regarded as a classic in the field. Brilliantly synthesising the
historical, political and sociological interpretations of the
seventeeth century, Stone explores theories of revolution and
traces the social and economic change that led to this period of
instability. The picture that emerges is one where historical
interpretation is enriched but not determined by grand theories in
the social sciences and, as Stone elegantly argues, one where the
upheavals of the seventeenth century are central to the very story
of modernity. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new
foreword by Clare Jackson, Trinity Hall, Cambridge.
