Jun 30, 2022•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
In this episode, Dr Cesare Cuttica re-examines the idea of democracy in
early modern England in his latest book Anti-democracy in England 1570-1642
(Oxford University Press). The main premise of his original interpretation
is that democracy did not exist, and in fact, it was seen as a threat to
the way of life. Contemporary democratic ideas were dangerous, immoral and
were associated with the uneducated commonalty.
