Absolute Monarchy and the Stuart Constitution
ISBN: 9780300217285 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this ambitious reinterpretation of the early Stuart period in England, Glenn Burgess contends that the common understanding of seventeenth-century English politics is oversimplified and inaccurate.

Yet, Burgess argues, the very terms that...

ISBN: 9780333527467 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Politics of the Ancient Constitution is a close examination of the political ideas of common lawyers in early Stuart England, and includes important surveys of the ideas of Sir Edward Coke and John Selden. It provides an original interpretation of the lawyers' theory of the ancient constitution and on this basis it provides a novel interpretation of the basic structure of political thought and ideology in pre-Civil War England. In this way the book is able to make a substantial contribution to debates over the ideological origins of the English Revolution.

This experience has spurred policy makers to demand that a comparison be made between the public and private provision of services to determine the overall value for money of public-private partnership ventures.

England's Wars of Religion, Revisited
ISBN: 9781409419730 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The causes and nature of the civil wars that gripped the British Isles in the mid-seventeenth century remain one of the most studied yet least understood historical conundrums. Religion, politics, economics and affairs local, national and international, all collided to fuel a conflict that has posed difficult questions both for contemporaries and later historians. Were the events of the 1640s and 50s the first stirrings of modern political consciousness, or, as John Morrill suggested, wars of religion? This collection revisits the debate with a series of essays which explore the implications...

Neo-Historicism: Studies in Renaissance Literature, History and Politics
ISBN: 9780859915816 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For nearly two decades, Renaissance literary scholarship has been dominated by various forms of postmodern criticism which claim to expose the simplistic methodology of traditional' criticism and to offer a more sophisticated view of the relation between literature and history; however, this new approach, although making scholars more alert to the political significance of literary texts, has been widely criticised on both methodological and theoretical grounds. The revisionist essays collected in this volume make a major contribution to the modern debate on historical method, approaching...
