by JOEL HURST FIELD
Professor of Modern History in the University of London
Since Tawney's Essays twenty-five years ago the relation between the Court, the aristocrat, and the gentleman in the early seventeenth century has been a matter of controversy. Professor Hurst-field considers this controversy and. as a part of it, Lawrence Stone's recent book The CrisIs of the Aristocracy.
