内容説明
This animated and sometimes impassioned account of the English Civil War and revolution discloses the fractured mosaic of English society: the war between King and Parliament; the quarrels and debates within the Army; the Army takeover of Parliament; the attempted counter-revolution in the City of London; and the intense factionalism which prevented the cessation of war from becoming a settled peace. The author also explores the symbolism of Charles I's execution, the 'Great Debates' about the proper limits of the King's authority and his obligations to God, Parliament and the people, and the 'great divide' in English politics which makes neutral writing about this period impossible. A book for undergraduates and the general reader, it also offers insights to the well-informed.

内容説明
The English Civil Wars and Revolution remain controversial. This book develops the theme that the Revolution, arising from the three separate rebellions, was an English phenomenon exported to Ireland and then to Scotland. Dr Kennedy examines the widespread effects of years of bloody and unnatural civil wars upon the British Isles. He also explores the symbolism of Charles I's execution, the 'great debates' about the proper limits of the King's authority and the 'great divide' in English politics which makes neutral writing about this period impossible. Taking into account the radical exigencies and expectations of war and peace-making, the discordant testimonies from battlefield and bargaining table, Parliament, press and pulpit, Dr Kennedy provides a full analysis of the English experience of revolution.
