The Rule of Moderation: Violence, Religion and the Politics of Restraint in Early Modern England
Shagan, Ethan H. (University of California, Berkeley)
The ideal of moderation is central to English history and identity. But Ethan H. Shagan argues that in early modern England, it was a profoundly coercive tool of social, religious and political power. This important new book illuminates the period's subtle violence and offers many original insights into English history.
