From tyrant to unfit monarch: Marchamont Nedham's representation of Charles Stuart andr royalists during the interegnum
2015
Overview
Marchamont Nedham was one of the most significant English journalists of the seventeenth century. During the interegnum, his newspaper Mercurius Politicus routinely printed stories of exiled royalists and their leader Charles Stuart. Although the topic of royalists was consistent throughout the 1650s, the royal image in Politicus was not. In the early 1650s, Nedham described Charles Stuart as a tyrant and enemy of freedom, while after 1651, the exiled king appeared as a failed monarch. Nedham's reporting of royalists was independent of government influence, and he himself elected to change his representation of royalists. It was the shifting political situation that convinced him to alter his descriptions of Charles Stuart and his followers. Reprinted by permission of Blackwell Publishers
