HIST 3130 - Tudor-Stuart Britain

This course charts England's sixteenth- and seventeenth-century progress, from its early Tudor position as a war-weakened Catholic country, through its Elizabethan reinvention as a nation of Protestants and pirates, to its mid-seventeenth-century incarnation as a Puritan Commonwealth with imperial ambitions, ultimately culminating in its early eighteenth-century emergence as a constitutional monarchy and imperial power.
