Summary "Geschichte von England seit der Thronbesteigung Jakob's des Zweiten. Vierter Band" by Thomas Babington Macaulay is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work explores the political and social landscape of England following the ascent of King James II, focusing on key figures, events, and the intricacies of governance during this period. A central figure in this narrative is William of Orange, whose influence and actions significantly shaped the course of English history. The opening of the text delves into the characterization of William of Orange, outlining his physical appearance, upbringing, and the early development of his political and military talents. Macaulay describes William as having a unique blend of physical frailty and formidable determination, showcasing his rise from a politically precarious youth to a respected leader amidst turmoil. The text sets the stage for an exploration of William’s relationships with prominent personalities, his controversial marriage, and the overarching conflicts influencing the politics of both England and Europe during his time.
