摘要 Utilizing a handful of succession treatises from the first decade of Elizabeth I's reign, this article analyses the multiplicity of ways in which early modern Englishmen and Scotsmen conceived of parliament's fundamental characteristics and decision-making processes, as well as the relationship between the changeability of the law and parliamentary authority. It argues that Elizabeth's refusal to allow her parliaments to discuss the succession opened up a discursive space in which resurrected and potential future parliaments served as logical, forward-thinking arbiters of this sensitive issue, and both pro- and anti-Stuart tract writers could identify at least one version of the Lords, Commons and crown that either had endorsed or supposedly would endorse their respective positions.
