HST 632 England in the 17th Century

Political, financial, and religious crises under the early Stuart monarchs led to civil war and revolution, and, briefly, unparalleled liberty. The Restoration brought new ideas but also renewed political-religious conflict, which led to the last successful invasion of England. The course also examines England’s naval strength, the new utilitarian science, overseas ventures, and the beginnings of the fiscal-military state, as well as the growth of London, attitudes towards death, and the changing roles of women.
