Psicospace.itCromwell, Dittatura e Restaurazione: il fragile destino della Repubblica Inglese
Con la decapitazione di Carlo I nel 1649 e la proclamazione della Repubblica (Commonwealth of England), l’Inghilterra sembrava aver voltato pagina. Per la prima volta nella sua storia non c’era un re sul trono, e il governo era affidato — almeno formalmente — al Parlamento. Ma il nuovo ordine durò poco. Dietro la retorica repubblicana si nascondeva un potere sempre più autoritario, incarnato da Oliver Cromwell. Negli anni successivi, tra guerre sanguinose, repressioni interne e […]

robcorneliusMr Mountbatten-Windsor would do well to learn about the last member of the English "royal" family to be arrested.
The "royal" in question was Charles the first. Contrary to popular belief he was not hiding up every oak tree in England but was living quite comfortably outside of Oxford while the civil war was raging.
Eventually the Parliamentary forces had enough. A squad of cavalry from the New Model Army under the command of a corporal were sent to arrest the "king".
When the troopers arrived on the "kings" front lawn he walked out to see what was going on. He demanded to know what authority the troopers had to arrest him. In other words what officer had given the troopers their orders.
The corporal drew his sword and stuck it under the "kings" nose and said something along the lines of "this is all the authority I need". The king went quietly after that.
Of course Charles was beheaded after a trial before Parliament.
Cromwell was a total bastard and worse than the "king". The Commonwealth was terrible in many ways. However for a few short years the English were not forced to bow down to the "divine right of kings" at the point of a sword.
If the counter revolution of the Levellers had not been brutally put down by Cromwell and the Parliamentary grandees England would almost certainly have been a better place. England would have been genuinely democratic and socialist centuries ago. There would have been no going back either.
No "lords", No masters, level the land.
That was a great revolutionary slogan in the 1640s and its just as good now.

Liam O'Mara IV, PhDThe #RootAndBranchPetition was presented to #Cromwell's #LongParliament on #ThisDayInHistory in 1640. It called for abolition of #episcopacy, from fear the hierarchy of the #ChurchOfEngland was a slippery slope back to #Catholicism. When it failed to pass, mobs attacked churches.
