Description: Focusing on the political, intellectual, and cultural context of England in the early modern period (14th century to 18th century), this volume of essays honoring Perez Zagorin, Wilson Professor of History emeritus, University of Rochester, represents, in part, the breadth of his wide-ranging work and intellectual interests.

These timely studies explore political theory and the English Revolution, the revisionist debates over the court and the country, and the role of Laudian policies in the years prior to the Civil War. The volume also explores aristocratic rule in 17th century England as compared to that of the Polish Commonwealth, the resonance of political events in literary culture, Hobbes's theory of passions, the role of the gentle apprentice in London, and the problem of religious dissent in the 17th century.
