Welcome!
We
hope you will begin your study of the Gunpowder Plot here. We have provided
a general working introduction. One of the reasons that the Gunpowder Plot
has interested scholars and has been celebrated by such a diverse range
of political and religious interests is that there are sufficient gaps
in important documentation to ensure that there can be no one complete
definitive account. You should view any organization claiming to possess
one with skepticism. Be advised also, that the plot was molded and shaped
by many dynamic causal dimensions. A simple answer will simply not work!
Be mindful of the fact that the plot is much more than the product of one
evil person, group, or culture. It seems more like a multidimensional wave
brought forth by the actions and reactions of all groups, individuals,
and forces over time. As you will discover, the plot's interest derives
from the mysteries that will always surround it. So.....we tell it as we
see it for now. Others will surely differ but not about the main
points and framework. We encourage you to seek out alternative explanations.
We have references to them in our extensive bibliography. Remember, Remember,
the Fifth of November is Much more than just history and facts! When you
are done here move on to learn of the history of celebration!-which is
where perhaps, its true signifcance is found -click. |
