Queen Elizabeth and the Making of Policy, 1572-1588 (Princeton Legacy Library)

Wallace T. MacCaffrey
4.9/5 (23858 ratings)
Description:A sequel to his earlier book, The Shaping of the Elizabethan Regime (Princeton, 1968), this latest work by Wallace MacCaffrey continues his study of English political leadership from 1572 to 1588. In it he emphasizes the range of problems—striking both in their novelty and in their ambiguity—posed by the Reformation a generation earlier. During these years, the Elizabethan regime was challenged by a series of foreign and domestic events that tested its abilities to the utmost and that drove the government to make important and largely irreversible decisions.To determine how policy evolved from the interaction between Elizabeth and her councillors, the author begins with domestic affairs. Specifically, he focuses on the central problem of religious dissent, both Protestant and Catholic. Turning to foreign affairs, he then examines England's external relations with the continental monarchies and Scotland. Lastly, he analyzes the two foci of decision-making: the Court and Parliament.As Professor MacCaffrey shows, the Reformation had broken up old patterns of both international and domestic life and created new relationships and intense hostilities, highly charged with religious ideology. The reaction of the English leadership to these problems was slow and clumsy; but by 1588 the monarchy had made significant decisions that would have immense consequences for the future.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
