The Accession of James I de G. Burgess

The Accession of James I: Historical and Cultural Consequences

G. Burgess

R. Wymer

J. Lawrence

This book analyzes the consequences of the accession of James I in 1603 for English and British history, politics, literature and culture. Questioning the extent to which 1603 marked a radical break with the past, the book explores the Scottish, Welsh, and wider European and colonial contexts, to this crucial date in history.
