Book Synopsis Culture and Politics at the Court of Charles II, 1660-1685 by : Matthew Jenkinson
Book excerpt: The reconstitution of the royal court in 1660 brought with it the restoration of fears that had been associated with earlier Stuart courts: disorder, sexual liberty, popery and arbitrary government. This volume illustrates the ways in which court culture was informed by the heady politics of Britain between 1660 and 1685.
