Prior to the Civil Wars of the 1640s, English jurists construed the law of treason largely as a personal crime against the monarch. The book reveals how the events of the 1640s challenged pre-existing interpretations and led to a revised understanding of treason as a crime committed against \"the state\" as an impersonal entity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51939570614560,"sku":"NEW0521037336","price":80.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/treason-and-the-state-law-politics-and-ideology-in-the-english-civil-war-cambridge-studies-in-early-modern-british-history-0521037336","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
