Abstract

The concluding chapter surveys the deep, seismic changes in political and religious life investigated in this study. Conditions of civil war generated novel structures and practices for the conduct of politics, allowing for the expression of fierce partisan contestation across the polity. New ideas and assumptions, elaborated in previous chapters, erupted in tandem with these new political structures and practices, helping to bring down the monarchy in 1649. The conclusion suggests that these political realignments and ideological formulations—along with the profound divisions that they fostered—persisted in the wake of the civil wars, shaping anglophone political and religious life after the Restoration and beyond.
