THE politics of later-Stuart Britain were fractious and factious. If much of this originated in the disjunction between the faith of James II and that of most of his people, the first step in the resolution of that disjunction, the Glorious Revolution, ushered in major new sources of discord: an era of intense warfare; the rise of the ‘fiscal military state’; a much freer press; frequent elections; an efflorescence of legislation; and institutionalised heterodoxy. For many years historians have often studied these in relation to the practice of party politics, especially Whig versus Tory and Court versus Country. The recent publication of the History of Parliament's volumes for the House of Commons between 1690 and 1715 have, at least for a while, provided a definitive account from that perspective. It might seem, indeed, that the political landscape of the period is now mapped in unchallengeable detail. But Mark Knights brilliantly shows a new way of considering later-Stuart politics. By concentrating on political culture, broadly defined, he offers an alternative view that adds considerably to how the anxieties and uncertainties of the period might be understood
