The Reigns of Charles II and James VII & II
View through CrossRef
British history in the period from the restoration of 1660 to the revolution of 1688, no less than in other periods, has been subject to ‘revisionism’. This volume examines and analyses some of the challenging new theories relating to politics, society, religion and culture that have attracted attention in recent years. It provides both a wide-ranging survey of the principal themes of the post-restoration era, and a series of insights derived from the detailed research of individual contributors.
