› Find signed collectible books: 'The English Bible and the Seventeenth-Century Revolution'Book summary:The translation of the Bible into English in the 16th century was one of the most important events in English history. Previously, the sacred text had been accessible only to a tiny minority, now anybody could read or listen to it. This study explores some of the effects of the Bible - on English literature during its greatest century, on social, agrarian, foreign and colonial policies. During the 17th-century Revolution, the Bible was used to justify both resistance to and defence of the King, and it called into question all established institutions and practices. But the Revolution revealed the impossiblity of agreeing on what the Bible said. This book should help a better understanding of England's most controversial century. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'God's Englishman Oliver Cromwell and the English Rev'Book summary:This is a nuanced biography of Oliver Cromwell, breaking down Cromwell's life into different parts: fenland farmer and humble backbencher; stalwart of the good old cause and the New Model Army; key figure of the Commonwealth; and, finally Lord Protector. Hill leads the reader unsentimentally through Cromwell's life from his beginnings in Huntingdonshire to his brutal end. Hill brings all his considerable knowledge of the period to bear on the relationships God's Englishman had with God and England. Such a detailed understanding of the workings of providence is vital to understanding Cromwell. [via]

The Law of Freedom, and Other Writingsby Gerrard Winstanley, Christopher HillISBN 0140400230 (0-14-040023-0)
Hardcover, Penguin

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Law of Freedom, and Other Writings'Book summary:Leader of the Diggers, or True Levellers, whose colony was forced to disband in 1650, Gerrard Winstanley stands out from a century remarkable for its development in political thought as one of the most fecund and original of political writers. An acute and penetrating social critic with a passionate sense of justice, he worked out a collectivist theory which strikingly anticipates nineteenth- and twentieth-century socialism. He was the first modern European thinker to write in the vernacular advocating a communist society, and to call upon ordinary people to realize it. Winstanley published a number of pamphlets on the colony's behalf, among them a summary of his ideas, published in 1652 as The Law of Freedom in a Platform and dedicated to Oliver Cromwell. Christopher Hill's selection from Winstanley's many published pamphlets demonstrates the coherence and social relevance of Winstanley's philosophy, while it reveals his mastery of colloquial prose and his superb use of imagery.

A Turbulent, Seditious, and Factious People: John Bunyan and His Churchby Christopher HillISBN 0198128185 (0-19-812818-5)

› Find signed collectible books: 'A Turbulent, Seditious, and Factious People: John Bunyan and His Church'Book summary:This new biography of Bunyan, published to celebrate the tercentenary of his death, offers a reassessment of the man against in the context of his times. Bunyan is usually studied and remembered as the author of "The Pilgrim's Progress", "Mr Badman" and "The Holy War", but his own consideration of himself would most probably have been as a preacher first and foremost - a man whose non-conformist religion led him into conflict with the Quakers and into years of imprisonment. It was in the service of this religion that his writings were produced, many of them during the nearly 12 years spent in Bedford jail between 1660 and 1672, though he continued to publish after his release. Christopher Hill, retired Master of Balliol, whose previous books include "Intellectual Origins of the English Revolution", sets Bunyan against the troubled background of the Commonwealth and the church and throws new light on his personality and the religious conflicts that resulted in his writings.

› Find signed collectible books: 'World Turned Upside Down: Radical Ideas During the English Revolution'Book summary:Within the English revolution of the mid-seventeenth century which resulted in the triumph of the protestant ethic - the ideology of the propertied class - there threatened another, quite different, revolution. Its success 'might have established communal property, a far wider democracy in political and legal institutions, might have disestablished the state church and rejected the protestant ethic. In "The World Turned Upside Down" Christopher Hill studies the beliefs of such radical groups as the Diggers, the Ranters, the Levellers and others, and the social and emotional impulses that gave rise to them. The relations between rich and poor classes, the part played by wandering 'masterless' men, the outbursts of sexual freedom, the great imaginative creations of Milton and Bunyan - these and many other elements build up into a marvellously detailed and coherent portrait of this strange, sudden effusion of revolutionary beliefs.
