The nature of the seventeenth-century English revolution remains one of the most contested of all historical issues. Scholars are unable to agree on what caused it, when precisely it happened, how significant it was in terms of political, social, economic, and intellectual impact, or even whether it merits being described as a "revolution" at all. Over the past twenty years these debates have become more complex, but also richer. This volume brings together new essays by a group of leading scholars of the revolutionary period and will provide readers with a provocative and stimulating introduction to current research. All the essays engage with one or more of three themes which lie at the heart of recent debate: the importance of the connection between individuals and ideas; the power and influence of religious ideas; and the most appropriate chronological context for discussion of the revolution.

A very strong collection which offers rich testimony to the breadth and importance of John Morrill's work on Stuart Britain and which makes an important contribution to the history of British political culture. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW
In contrast to many collections, the essays in The Nature of the English Revolution are (without exception) cogent and deeply researched. Together, they show how the powerful ideologies of the age were related to the practicalities of constitutional arrangements, polemical exchanges, correspondence networks, clerical ordinations, local elections, and gestural regimes.
