Articles liés à Oliver Cromwell and the English Revolution
Synopsis
Few people have been so variously assessed, both in their lifetimes and since, as Cromwell - one of the best known but also most controversial figures in English history. In this book his career is divided into four phases, each dealt with separately - provincial gentleman; soldier; Member of Parliament and Lord Protector. Eight contributors present information and the book contains much new research. John Morrill opens and closes the book with an introduction and a final survey of how Cromwell was assessed by his contemporaries.

Présentation de l'éditeur
John Morrill has been at the forefront of modern attempts to explain the origins, nature and consequences of the English Revolution. These twenty essays -- seven either specially written or reproduced from generally inaccessible sources -- illustrate the main scholarly debates to which he has so richly contributed: the tension between national and provincial politics; the idea of the English Revolution as ``the last of the European Wars of Religion''; its British dimension; and its political sociology. Taken together, they offer a remarkably coherent account of the period as a whole.
Revue de presse
'This collection of nine essays is a valuable addition to recent work on Cromwell. It is of the highest quality, with first-rate contributors using their own original research.'
