Opis

The religious and political history of late seventeenth and early eighteenth-century England is typically written in terms of conflict and division. This book reveals how civic celebration, designed as an expression of unity and amity, was often used for partisan purposes, reaching a peak in the 1710s.

Recenzje

a well-documented and well-argued work which explores hitherto relatively uncharted areas of late Stuart and early Hanoverian politics.
