New insights into the nature of the seventeenth-century English
revolution - one of the most contested issues in early modern
British history. The nature of the seventeenth-century English
revolution remains one of the most contested of all historical
issues. Scholars are unable to agree on what caused it, when
precisely it happened, how significant it was in terms of
political, social, economic, and intellectual impact, or even
whether it merits being described as a "revolution" at all. Over
the past twenty years these debates have become more complex, but
also richer. This volume brings together new essays by a group of
leading scholars of the revolutionary period and will provide
readers with a provocative and stimulating introduction to current
research. All the essays engage with one or more of three themes
which lieat the heart of recent debate: the importance of the
connection between individuals and ideas; the power and influence
of religious ideas; and the most appropriate chronological context
for discussion of the revolution. STEPHEN TAYLOR is Professor in
the History of Early Modern England at the University of Durham.
GRANT TAPSELL is Lecturer in Early Modern History, University of
Oxford and Fellow and Tutor at Lady Margaret Hall. Contributors:
Philip Baker, J. C. Davis, Kenneth Fincham, Rachel Foxley, Tim
Harris, Ethan H. Shagan, John Spurr, Grant Tapsell, Stephen Taylor,
