Articulate and restless London citizens were at the heart of
political and religious confrontation in England from the
Interregnum through the great crisis of Church and state that
marked the last years of Charles II's reign. The same Reformed
Protestant citizens who took the lead in toppling in toppling the
Rump in 1659-60 took the lead in demanding a new Protestant
settlement after 1678. In the interval, their demands for liberty
of conscience challenged the Anglican order, whilst their arguments
about consensual government in the city challenged loyalist
political assumptions. Dissenting and Anglican identities developed
in specific locales within the city, rooting the Whig and Tory
parties of 1679-83 in neighbourhoods with different traditions and
cultures. London and the Restoration integrates the history of the
kingdom with that of its premier locality in the era of Dryden and
Locke, analysing the ideas and the movements that unsettled the
Restoration regime.
