Description
Hill considers both material and intellectual aspects of the Revolution, discussing, for example, the relationship between Protestantism and the rise of capitalism; the ideological attacks on divinity, law, and medicine; and the entry of the "many-headed monster"-the masses-into politics. First published in 1974 and now available in paper for the first time, the book has been revised by the author to take into account recent scholarship in the field.
"Like all [Hill's] work, this . . . volume is not only distinguished and accomplished, but deeply humane."-John Kenyon, The Observer
"Hill's contribution to seventeenth-century English history has been enormous. This book, like his others, is informative, stimulating . . . provocative, and most welcome."-John Miller, Times Higher Education Supplement
