A scholarly collection of essays examining the search for political and constitutional settlement in England between the end of the first Civil War and the Restoration of the monarchy. Edited by G. E. Aylmer, The Interregnum brings together leading historians to explore the unsettled world of the Commonwealth and Protectorate, including London politics, the Levellers, Thomas Hobbes and the Engagement controversy, the church, social and economic policy, Cromwellian legislation, county settlement and the final attempts to secure a stable regime before 1660.
Published in Macmillan’s Problems in Focus series, the volume is designed to introduce major historical debates through specialist essays rather than a single narrative account. It remains a useful academic reference for readers interested in the English Civil War, the Commonwealth, Oliver Cromwell, republican politics, religious settlement and the political crisis that led eventually to the Restoration.
