Revolutionary England, C.1630-c.1660: Essays for Clive Holmes: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Revolutionary England, C.1630-c.1660: Essays for Clive Holmes" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Revolutionary England, c. 1630-c. 1660 presents a series of cutting-edge studies by established and rising authorities in the field, providing a powerful discourse on the events, crises and changes that electrified mid-seventeenth-century England.

The descent into civil war, killing of a king, creation of a republic, fits of military government, written constitutions, dominance of Oliver Cromwell, abolition of a state church, eruption into major European conflicts, conquest of Scotland and Ireland, and efflorescence of powerfully articulated political thinking dazzled, bewildered or appalled contemporaries, and has fascinated scholars ever since. Compiled in honour of one of the most respected scholars of early modern England, Clive Holmes, this volume considers themes that both reflect Clives own concerns and stand at the centre of current approaches to seventeenth-century studies: the relations between language, ideas, and political actors; the limitations of central government; and the powerful role of religious belief in public affairs.

Centred chronologically on Clive Holmes seventeenth-century heartland, this is a focused volume of essays produced by leading scholars inspired by his scholarship and teaching. Investigative and analytical, it is valuable reading for all scholars of Englands revolutionary period.

This book grew out of a conference held in honour of Clive Holmes in Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, on 10 September 2011, and we would like to thank all of the participants, the College, and particularly its then Principal Frances Lannon for what was a memorable occasion. We are grateful to Tom Gray and his colleagues at Ashgate for their work on this book and their good-humoured approach. Our individual contributors will have benefitted from different scholarly interactions, but all will want to record their thanks to the many librarians and archivists who have made their work possible. Jennifer Southcombe and Catherine Wright have provided much needed respite and laughter at key moments, and Felicity Heal has been a constantly supportive presence. Catherine Wright heroically also produced the index, for which our gratitude is profound. Our sons, George and Samuel, make everything better, not least by showing a bracing, and happy, lack of interest in their fathers scholarly activities.
Our greatest thanks are reserved for the books dedicatee.
