| Zusammenfassung: | Argues that the period from 1675 was the second stage of a 17th-century revolution that ran on until 1720. This book traces the development of the public as an arbiter of politics, the growth of a national political culture, the shift towards a representative society, and a political enlightenment rooted in local and national partisan conflict.. - In this original and illuminating new study, Mark Knights reveals how the political culture of the eighteenth century grew out of earlier trends and innovations. Arguing that the period from 1675 needs to be seen as the second stage of a seventeenth-century revolution that ran on until c.1720, "Representation and Misrepresentation in Later Stuart Britain" charts the growth of a national political culture and traces the development of the public as an arbiter of politics. In doing so, it uncovers a crisis of public discourse and credibility, and finds a political enlightenment rooted in local and national partisan conflict. The later Stuart period was characterized by frequent elections, the lapse of pre-publication licensing, the emergence of party politics, the creation of a public debt, and ideological conflict over popular sovereignty. These factors combined to enhance the status of the 'public', not least in requiring it to make numerous acts of judgement. Contemporaries from across the political spectrum feared that the public might be misled by the misrepresentations pedalled by their rivals Each side, and those ostensibly of no side, discerned a culture of passion, slander, libel, lies, hypocrisy, dissimulation, conspiracy, private languages, and fictions. 'Truth' appeared an ambiguous, political matter. Yet the reaction to partisanship was also creative, for it helped to construct an ideal form of political discourse. This was one based on reason rather than passion, on moderation rather than partisan zeal, on critical reading rather than credulity; and an increasing realization that these virtues arose from infrequent rather than frequent elections. Finding synergies between social, political, religious, scientific, literary, cultural, and intellectual history, "Representation and Misrepresentation in Later Stuart Britain" reinvigorates the debate about the emergence of 'the public sphere' in the later Stuart period |

This book traces the development of the public as an arbiter of politics, the growth of a national political culture, the shift towards a representative society, and a political enlightenment rooted in local and national partisan conflict.. - In this original and illuminating new study, Mark Knights reveals how the political culture of the eighteenth century grew out of earlier trends and innovations. Arguing that the period from 1675 needs to be seen as the second stage of a seventeenth-century revolution that ran on until c.1720, "Representation and Misrepresentation in Later Stuart Britain" charts the growth of a national political culture and traces the development of the public as an arbiter of politics. In doing so, it uncovers a crisis of public discourse and credibility, and finds a political enlightenment rooted in local and national partisan conflict. The later Stuart period was characterized by frequent elections, the lapse of pre-publication licensing, the emergence of party politics, the creation of a public debt, and ideological conflict over popular sovereignty. These factors combined to enhance the status of the 'public', not least in requiring it to make numerous acts of judgement. Contemporaries from across the political spectrum feared that the public might be misled by the misrepresentations pedalled by their rivals Each side, and those ostensibly of no side, discerned a culture of passion, slander, libel, lies, hypocrisy, dissimulation, conspiracy, private languages, and fictions. 'Truth' appeared an ambiguous, political matter. Yet the reaction to partisanship was also creative, for it helped to construct an ideal form of political discourse. This was one based on reason rather than passion, on moderation rather than partisan zeal, on critical reading rather than credulity; and an increasing realization that these virtues arose from infrequent rather than frequent elections. Finding synergies between social, political, religious, scientific, literary, cultural, and intellectual history, "Representation and Misrepresentation in Later Stuart Britain" reinvigorates the debate about the emergence of 'the public sphere' in the later Stuart period Geschichte 1600-1700 Geschichte 1603-1716 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1660-1716 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Politik Public opinion Great Britain History 17th century Political parties Great Britain History 17th century Political culture Great Britain History 17th century Politics and literature Great Britain History 17th century Representative government and representation Great Britain History 17th century Repräsentation Politik (DE-588)4398345-5 gnd rswk-swf Politische Beteiligung (DE-588)4076215-4 gnd rswk-swf Politische Kultur (DE-588)4046540-8 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien Great Britain Politics and government 1660-1714 England (DE-588)4014770-8 gnd rswk-swf England (DE-588)4014770-8 g Politische Kultur (DE-588)4046540-8 s Geschichte 1660-1716 z DE-604 Repräsentation Politik (DE-588)4398345-5 s Geschichte 1603-1716 z 1\p DE-604 Politische Beteiligung (DE-588)4076215-4 s 2\p DE-604 http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip055/2004030382.html Table of contents only http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0635/2004030382-d.html Publisher description http://www.h-net.org/review/hrev-a0e9g5-aa Book review (H-Net) 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
