The Personal of the Event: Subjectivity and the English Civil War

Ware, Henry Joseph
Abstract
This is a text based examination of modes of politicization in Early Modern England, up to and including the English Civil War. It places subjectivity in a framework constructed around the work of Alain Badiou, Quentin Meillassoux, and Jacques Derrida in order to create new readings of English newsbooks from the 1620s and the political interventions of John Lilburne and Marchamont Nedham in the 1640s.
