Reformation in Britain and Ireland
ISBN: 9780198269243 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is an innovative volume which studies the coming of reform in the sixteenth century more broadly than do traditional national narratives of religious change. It argues for an interactive and comparative understanding of this crucial dimension of British and Irish history. Through the examination of political choices, of ecclesiastical structures, and of individual religious attitudes, it seeks to explain the success or failure of Protestantism in these islands.

Of Prelates and Princes: A Study of the Economic and Social Position of the Tudor Episcopate
ISBN: 9780521087612 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Tudor bishops were men of power and influence within the English realm, both because they possessed spiritual authority and because they exercised lordship over great estates. This book examines their activities as temporal lords: it seeks to discover how wealthy they were and to what uses their revenues were put. Dr Heal draws upon much research undertaken by other scholars in particular dioceses and for particular prelates. The bishops possessed considerable wealth, but they had little security, for the crown effectively controlled their economic destiny, especially after the break with...

The Power of Gifts: Gift Exchange in Early Modern England
ISBN: 9780199542956 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Gifts are always with us: we use them positively to display affection and show gratitude for favours; we suspect that others give and accept them as douceurs and bribes. The gift also performed these roles in early modern English culture: and assumed a more significant role because networks of informal support and patronage were central to social and political behaviour. Favours, and their proper acknowledgement, were preoccupations of the age of Erasmus, Shakespeare, and Hobbes. As in modern society, giving and receiving was complex and full of the potential for social damage. 'Almost...

Hospitality in Early Modern England
ISBN: 9780198217633 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is the first study of the ideal and practice of hospitality in England between the fifteenth and seventeenth centuries. In early modern England, hospitality was believed to be a vital social virtue, comparable in significance to the maintenance of honesty or the proper pursuit of honour, and seen as one of the foundations of the moral economy. It was a Christian and moral duty to keep a good house: to be open and generous in entertainment of both rich and poor, neighbour and stranger. Hospitality is now regarded very differently, and our changed attitudes hamper our approach to the...

The Gentry in England and Wales, 1500-1700
ISBN: 9780333527290 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 489 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The book is the first full analysis of the gentry in the early modern period since G.E.Mingay The Gentry: the Rise and Fall of a Ruling Class (1976). It offers a synthesis of the recent specialist work on this key social and political group, but will also provide a distinctive approach to its subjects through the use of the texts and artefacts by which the gentry sought to fashion themselves.

The Oxford Handbook of Holinshed's Chronicles
ISBN: 9780199565757 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 800 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Chronicles of England, Scotland and Ireland (1577, 1587), issued under the name of Raphael Holinshed, was the crowning achievement of Tudor historiography, and became the principal source for the historical writings of Spenser, Daniel and, above all, Shakespeare. While scholars have long been drawn to Holinshed for its qualities as a source, they typically dismissed it as a baggy collection of materials, lacking coherent form and analytical insight. This condescending verdict has only recently given way to an appreciation of the literary and historical qualities of these chronicles.
