The Accession of James I: Historical and Cultural Consequences

by Jason Lawrence (Editor), G. Burgess (Editor), R. Wymer (Editor)

This book analyzes the consequences of the accession of James I in 1603 for English and British history, politics, literature and culture. Questioning the extent to which 1603 marked a radical break with the past, the book explores the Scottish, Welsh, and wider European and colonial contexts, to this crucial date in history.
