In this wide-ranging and insightful study, Defoe explores the complex topic of royal clemency in post-Reformation England, shedding new light on the legal, political, and ethical dimensions of this crucial topic. Drawing on a wealth of primary source material, including legal briefs, parliamentary records, and contemporary accounts, this volume offers a unique and nuanced perspective on the relationship between sovereign power and individual liberty in the era of the Enlightenment. Whether you're interested in the history of the English monarchy, the legal history of England, or the intellectual and cultural history of the 18th century, this is an essential resource.
