Bemerkungen

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Papierbedingt leicht gebräunt., altersgemäß tadelloser Zustand / Paper a little bit browned, perfect condition due to age - Charles I and Charles II were father and son, yet their personalities could not have been more different. The character of Charles I is crucial to our understanding of the English Civil War. Charles II is one of the figures with which the nation most enjoys identifying itself. -- Richard Ollard examines the two most famous Stuart kings as they are revealed in the recollections of those who knew and served them, and as they are represented in the works of art that they commissioned. He has written a double biography which is also a brilliant account of a great transition in English history. -- Chronological Table -- The Stuart Touch -- Charles I: Man and Majesty -- Charles I: The Trial of Faith -- The Heir Unboyed -- First Steps to a Style -- Escapade -- Bad Debts -- Charles Il’s Religion -- Remittance Man -- The Restored King and His Old Servants -- Good King Charles’s Golden Days -- Early Notices -- The Stuarts under the Georges -- Romantic Revivals.
