In order to understand the English Revolution and Civil War we need to understand Puritanism. Professor Hill shows Puritanism as a living faith, answering the hopes and fears of yeomen and gentlemen, merchants and artisans. He looks at oath-taking and the Sabbath, bawdy courts and poor relief, and considers the household and dignity of labour. He shows Puritanism in daily life and the emergence of the seemingly paradoxical – the Puritan revolutionaries.
