John Jones, Puritan Saint
Author: Lisa B. Swann
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Charles Stuart was the first and only reigning English monarch to be tried, convicted, and beheaded for treason and murder. In January 1649, fifty-nine men signed the order that sent King Charles to his death. Theories offered for motives behind the execution generally include overarching themes such as republicanism, enmity towards Charles, or military ambition. I maintain, however, that each man who signed made a conscious choice to do so for individual reasons. Personal motives behind the decision to sign the warrant have rarely been evaluated. I offer this case study of one of the regicides as an addition to the scholarship on the topic of English regicides. John Jones Maes-y-garnedd, of Merionethshire, Wales, d. 1660, was the forty-second signatory of the death warrant. He was an army officer and a member of Parliament for Wales. I argue that Jones' official capacity as a colonel and an MP had very little to do with his decision to sign the warrant. For him, religious convictions were by far the strongest factor in the choices he made. Though religion has long been considered historically significant in seventeenth-century England, aspects of Jones' particular puritanism set him apart. John Jones was, in Michael Walzer's terms, a Puritan saint. His commitment to Calvinist principles of collective conscience and dedication to duty, his unwavering belief in the absolute power of God, and his 'calling' to facilitate the creation of a godly commonwealth are evident in his personal letters. This analysis of many of those letters reveals personal insight into Jones' character, especially with regard to his willingness to let faith guide him no matter the consequences.
