The Determination Of Parliamentarians To Challenge The Monarch And Expand Their Power Under King Charles I (1625 - 48)
Authors : Mostadi Siham .
Abstract
The English Parliament under King Charles I emerged as a powerful body which imposed itself on the political scene. It challenged any violation of privilege. Every act rested on a precedent, and if any deed of monarch or council went against it, Parliament under the leadership of the Commons protested. In this regard, Parliament was not an institution of compromise. Its perseverance to cling to this logic, to its convictions, and to the subsequent chain of facts expressing them are obvious throughout Charles’ reign. During each parliamentary session, it was more interested in the airing of grievances and the redress of wrongs committed in affairs of civil or religious character, than in the funding of a war in which it had little or no interest. Moreover, the parliamentarians took steps to oppose the monarch, thus cementing a gradual expansion of their power.
