About This Novel
Kate's Rebellion in 1549 was the largest popular uprising in the Tudor Dynasty in the late Middle Ages in England. At that time, Britain was in an important stage of transition from feudal society to capitalist society. Kate's Rebellion was a violent protest led by wealthy yeoman farmers and widely participated by urban freemen, craftsmen, merchants, small farmers, homeless people and other lower-class working people in urban and rural society to oppose aristocratic oppression and pursue social justice. Kate's Rebellion was the most mature of the many uprisings in Britain during the turbulent years of the mid-16th century. It was a concentrated expression of the social crisis in Britain. This social crisis was caused by a series of issues such as enclosure movements, religious reform, political reform, currency devaluation, demographic and social problems. Kate's Rebellion had an important impact on the development of British politics and was a landmark event in British "popular politics". This book analyzes the occurrence patterns of social crises and believes that mass politics can take five forms: revolution, uprising, riot, petition and public opinion.
