(Richard Lewis) Four Lectures on the English Revolution 4 Lectures on the English Revolution gdurb "Four Lectures on the English Revolution" by Thomas Hill Green is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The text features a series of lectures examining the complexities of the English Revolution, particularly how various historical figures and circumstances interact with the political and religious upheavals of the time. Green aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these events by analyzing the motivations and implications behind them, moving beyond traditional interpretations. At the start of the work, the author introduces the context of the English Revolution, noting its familiarity among historians but suggesting that its true character remains inadequately portrayed. Green emphasizes the tension between individual will and historical circumstance, arguing that the revolution is marked by a tragic struggle where political aspirations confront the underlying societal structures. He outlines the influences of the Reformation on English society, presenting the evolution of religious thought as a critical factor in the revolutionary landscape. In the initial lecture, Green lays the groundwork for examining the interplay of religious authority and individual conscience, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the conflicts that shaped this critical period in English history.
