This book is the fourth volume to feature Sir Geoffrey Elton's collected articles and reviews. Volume IV contains those published between 1983 and 1990, and includes a group of pieces on sixteenth-century government and politics, particularly aspects of the Reformation, on the continent as well as in England, with some attention to Martin Luther and an essay on Lancelot Andrewes. Several pieces deal with parliament under the Tudors. A second group, 'on Historians', reprints an appraisal of Sir Herbert Butterfield and three substantial reviews on historiographical problems.
