People and Parliament: Representative Rights and the English Revolution de G. Yerby

People and Parliament: Representative Rights and the English Revolution

Autor G. Yerby
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 ian 2008
This book offers a fresh and rounded perspective on the English Revolution of the 1640s. It uses detailed evidence to show how the economic requirement for parliament's services underpinned a demand for political change. It suggests that this took shape through a working 'discourse' of ideas about the status of representative forms.

Recenzii

'This re-interpretation of the Triennial Act of 1641 is important. It dispels some persistently repeated misunderstandings, and should lead to a reassessment of the initial aims of the Long Parliament' - Norah Carlin, author of The Causes of the English Civil War
