ISBN: 9780521572750 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Crime and the law have now been studied by historians of early modern England for more than a generation. This book attempts to reach further than most conventional treatments of the subject, to explore the cultural contexts of law-breaking and criminal prosecution, and to recover their hidden social meanings. It also examines in detail the crimes of witchcraft, coining--counterfeiting and coin-clipping--and murder, in order to reveal new and important insights into how the thinking of ordinary people was transformed between 1550 and 1750.

Prayer Book and People in Elizabethan and Early Stuart England
ISBN: 9780521793872 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the culture of conformity to the Church of England and its liturgy in the period after the Reformation and before the outbreak of the Civil War. It provides a necessary corrective to our view of religion in that period through a serious exploration of the laypeople who conformed, out of conviction, to the Book of Common Prayer. These "prayer book Protestants" formed a significant part of the spectrum of society in Tudor and Stuart England, yet until now they have remained an almost completely uninvestigated group.

George Lawson's 'Politica' and the English Revolution
ISBN: 9780521522380 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first full account, analysis and subsequent history of George Lawson's Politica, 1660 89. For long accepted as a significant figure, through his criticism of Hobbes and his possible influence on Locke, Lawson has never been studied in depth, nor has his biography been previously established. Professor Condren here provides the context and the analysis of Lawson's major work, in the process re-dating it and providing a quite different interpretation from previous readings. A substantial section is devoted to the history of the text and its use in controversies in the period 1660...

William III and the Godly Revolution
ISBN: 9780521544016 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book provides the first full account of William III's propaganda during his reign in England, 1689-1702. It thus explores the self-presentation of the English monarchy at a particularly difficult moment. In the 1690s the king had both to justify his irregular succession to the throne in the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and to mobilize his country for mass warfare. Unlike most other works on the political language of late Stuart England, this volume does not concentrate on secular arguments, but rather stresses the importance of religious ideas of the period, insisting that the king solved...
