Comment/Description

The lecture course will give an overview of socio-economic and cultural developments, religious debates, and political structures of early modern England. The sessions will cover the two centuries from the Tudor succession to the throne after the War of the Roses to the so-called Glorious Revolution, which established parliamentary monarchy and laid the foundation to modern Britain.

There will be unmarked assignments over the course of the teaching time, and a final written exam. Further details of the assignments will be explained in the first session.

Please note that prior registration (deadline: 18 October 2024) for the course via StudIP is mandatory.
