Reform in the Provinces: The Government of Stuart England
ISBN: 9780300036732 / Angielski / Twarda / 1986 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The foundation of the English state from the reigns of the Tudors to the age of Queen Victoria was a partnership between the crown and the country gentlemen who exercised administration and justice in the localities. This book is about a formative period in the making of that partnership. Anthony Fletcher suggests that the gentry's vigorous response to a gathering social crisis in the early decades of the seventeenth century enabled them to strengthen their nearly dominant hold upon local power. Although reform in the provinces, directed towards improving the efficiency and effectiveness of...

ISBN: 9780300076509 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Men and women in early modern England lived their lives within a social and gender framework inherited from biblical times. Patriarchy-the social and cultural dominance of the male-has long been a fundamental feature of western civilization yet has only recently begun to be systematically investigated by historians. This book is the first attempt to provide a rounded portrait of its workings over a long stretch of the English past. Anthony Fletcher's account draws from a vast range of sources-literary, medical, religious, and historical-to investigate the mechanisms through which men and...

This book presents an entirely fresh view of the upbringing of English children in upper and professional class families over three centuries. Drawing on direct testimony from contemporary diaries and letters, the book revises previous understandings of parenting and what it was like to grow up in the period between 1600 and 1914. Using advice literature which set out developing ideologies of childhood, gender and parenting, the book explores the separate but complementary roles of mothers and fathers in raising their children. Male upbringing is discussed in terms of schooling, female...

'My mother is a stranger' and other themes of reunification
ISBN: 9783639091946 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It is common practice for West Indian parents, typically the mother first, to migrate to the USA and leave the children behind in the care of relatives and friends. The intention is to have the children join them as soon as possible. Parents and children anticipate a joyful reunion, but the reality does not always fit the expectation. This phenomenological study explored the lived experience of post-immigration reunification from the perspective of the reunified adult children. In depth interviews were conducted with 8 New York City college students from 4 West Indian countries. Participants...

ISBN: 9780521893381 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book completes the study of the life and political thought of Algernon Sidney (1623-1683), which began with Algernon Sidney and the English Republic, 1623-1677 (1988).

Its twin focus is the last six years of Sidney's life, which culminated in the famous public drama of his trial and execution for treason in 1683, and in his major political work, the...

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...

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...

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.

Crime and Mentalities in Early Modern England
ISBN: 9780521531184 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 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.
