Is it possible to study "popular culture" in seventeenth-century England? Who, exactly, were "the people," what was their culture like, and how do we recapture it? Given that the seventeenth century was England's century of revolutions, to what extent were the people politicized at this time, and did the political views of the masses matter?
Tim Harris is the Munro-Goodwin-Wilkinson Professor in European History at Brown University. His lecture is sponsored by the Department of English, the Friends of Skillman Library, the Department of History, and the Medieval, Renaissance, and Early Modern Studies Program.
