  • Presidential Address

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1916References: 1

    One result of the war has been to turn our attention from domestic to foreign affairs. For a long time the British electorate had been so wrapped up in our own constitutional struggles that it was almost completely blind and deaf to other issues. It has been brought back to the affairs of Europe as it were by an earthquake. People who never thought seriously about the relations of England and the Continent, and were content to leave foreign polic…

  • Presidential Address

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1915

    When I remembered that I had to address the Society to-day I thought at first of choosing some subject remote from the troubles of the moment, something analogous to my former addresses on the development of historical studies in England. But it was not possible to do so. The events which are in progress now have too absorbing an interest to permit us to abstract ourselves from them, for which of us is not in some way or other intimately affected…

    Last May, I had the honour of reading a paper before the Society on the subject of the development of the study of seventeenth-century history hi the past: to-day, I wish to say something about the development of the study in the future. I am not going to prophesy: not even to try my skill in what politicians term ‘intelligent anticipation of the future.’ My aim is a much humbler one: I mean to make a brief survey of the field of seventeenth-cent…

  • The Development of the Study of Seventeenth-Century History

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1913

    My purpose is to trace the development of the study of one particular century in our national history, to show how the knowledge we now possess of it was acquired; how gradually the darkness which overhung the time was dissipated and the truth part by part revealed, and finally by what hands this work was achieved; and by what general causes its progress was promoted or retarded

  • The Reign of Charles I

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1912References: 1

    The reign of Charles I opened with the celebration of the new king's marriage. Charles succeeded his father on March 27, 1625, and Henrietta Maria made her entry into London on June 16. A ballad entitled ‘Jack of Lent's Ballad’ celebrated the Queen's coming, and described by anticipation the pageants with which the citizens of London received her. In one place she was to be met by St. George with a welcome to St. Denis; in another Jonah was to ap…

  • The Ballad History of the Reign of James I

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1911Cited by: 1References: 1

    A very large number of ballads written during the reign of James I have been preserved in various collections, though the dates of these productions are often obscured by the fact that those editions of them which have survived bear the imprint of publishers of a later time. The ‘Stationers' Registers,’ so far as the entry of ballads is concerned, were very carelessly kept during the twenty-two years that the king's reign covered, and during some…

  • The Ballad History of the Reigns of the Later Tudors

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1909

    Ballads about events which happened during the reigns of the later Tudors are far more numerous than those which relate to the reigns of their predecessors. They fall naturally into three classes. There are a few traditional ballads, probably handed down by word of mouth, committed to writing much later, and generally not printed till the eighteenth or nineteenth century. The authors of these are unknown; in the shape in which we possess them the…

  • The Ballad History of the Reigns of Henry VII. and Henry VIII

    Open AccessC H FirthARTICLETransactions of the Royal…1908Cited by: 2

    Ballads are useful as a supplement to graver historical authorities, and throw a light upon the history of the past which we could not derive from other sources. It is generally not difficult to know what the great men of any day—the nobles, and statesmen, and men of letters—thought about the events which happened in their time. We have their letters, or their speeches, or their biographies; but it is difficult to know what the common people who …
