Uniting the scholarship of experts in the field with the voices of younger historians, the essays cast new light on familiar themes and also introduce previously unexplored issues. Using thematic survey, biographical inquiry, specific study, and other methodologies, the contributors discuss key topics and figures of the period. They also utilize the Irish Legislation Database to unearth new details about the history of the pre-Union Irish parliament.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe essays on Irish history and parliament include discussions of the centrality of print, the regulation of trade and commerce, and the inauguration of the Hanoverian Succession. The ones on English history examine Pepys, Frederick, Prince of Wales, and Robert Peel, and provide new accounts of the House of Lords and the Excise Crisis, the impact of the West Indies on mid-Georgian elections, and the stimulus to economic development caused by the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Fresh and invigorating in nature, these essays provide a much-needed re-examination and reinterpretation of current perspectives on this period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989750923493,"sku":"NP9781118813546","price":41.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781118813546.jpg?v=1761785348","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/parliament-politics-and-policy-in-britain-and-ireland-c-1680-1832-isbn-9781118813546","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
