Straddling the Age of Reformation and the Age of Reason Charles Il practised the 'royal touch' and patronised the Royal Society. Three hundred years after his death Dr John Morrill , Fellow of Selwyn
College, Cambridge, reflects on such apparent contradictions, and argues that beneath a surface disguise, and behind the lazy pragmatism which marked his day-to-day governing,
Charles remained recognisably his father's son.
