Description
In this study six Tudor historians reconsider the view that the 1530s witnessed a 'revolution' in government and administration. This central interpretation of the history of sixteenth-century England has been the subject of fierce - and unresolved - controversy since it was first put forward by G. R. Elton thirty years ago, in The Tudor Revolution in Government . Revolution Reassessed offers not only a radical critique of established orthodoxy, but also a number of important reinterpretations of the history of the royal household, the council, parliament, and financial administration in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Each chapter is solidly grounded in new material, and offers a fresh and original insight into a critical period in English history. Contributors include: J. D. Alsop; Christopher Coleman; J. A. Guy; Dale Hoak; Jennifer Loach; David Starkey
