Brought together as a tribute to the distinguished Tudor historian C. S. L. Davies, the essays in this collection address key themes in the current historiography of the Tudor period. These include the nature, causes and consequences of change in English government, society and religion, the relationship of centre, localities and peripheral areas in the Tudor state, the regulation of belief and conduct, and the dynamics of England's relations with her neighbours. The contributors, colleagues and students of Cliff Davies, are all leading scholars who have provided fresh and interesting essays reflecting the wide ranging inquisitiveness characteristic of his own work. They seek to cross as he has done the traditional boundaries between the medieval and early modern periods and between social, political and religious history. A coherent collection in their own right, these essays, by showing the many new directions open to those studying the Tudor period, provide a fitting tribute to such an influential scholar.
Industry Reviews
'... this is a stimulating and wide-ranging collection and provides a fitting tribute to one of the most influential post-war historians of late medieval and early modern England.' The Ricardian 'Full of compelling pieces, some of the most engaging work investigates power relations from perspectives that modify traditional models of political authority... Excellent work abounds in this collection.' Reformation '... one will find in its well crafted and well documented essays a representative sampling of current thinking on the nature and import of the Reformation in England. Well worth reading.' The Tyndale Society Journal
