This book investigates the norms and values of Tudor and
early-Stuart politics, which are considered in the contexts of law
and the Reformation, legal and administrative institutions, and
classical and legal humanism. Main themes include 'imperial'
monarchy and the theory of 'counsel', Parliament and the royal
supremacy, conciliar politics and organization, the relationship of
law and equity, and the jurisdictional rivalry between the courts
of common law and canon law. The author argues that norms of Tudor
England were sufficiently pluralist to satisfy both 'absolutist'
and 'constitutionalist' aspirations, whereas by 1628 they proved no
longer effective as a mechanism for the orderly conduct of
politics. The clash between two conflicting sets of values was
translated into a clash of ideologies.
