John Hampden (ca. 1595-1643): A Pivotal Figure in English History This evocative engraving captures the likeness of John Hampden, a seminal figure in English history and a key instigator of the English Civil War. Born around 1595, Hampden was an influential English politician who gained notoriety for his opposition to the autocratic rule of King Charles I. In 1642, Hampden and four other Members of Parliament, collectively known as the 'Five Members,' were arrested in the House of Commons for refusing to pay the 'Ship Money,' a controversial tax imposed by the King without parliamentary consent. This unconstitutional act was seen as a gross infringement on parliamentary privilege and sparked widespread outrage, leading to the arrests being seen as a turning point in the build-up to the Civil War. Hampden's courageous stand against the King's tyranny made him a hero to many in the modern age. His leadership and statesmanship were instrumental in galvanizing the parliamentary forces and paving the way for the revolution that would ultimately lead to the establishment of a constitutional monarchy in England. This engraving, taken from Universal History, published in 1881, offers a vivid portrayal of Hampden's character and significance in European history. The image, rendered in rich colors, captures the intensity and determination in Hampden's eyes, reflecting the profound impact of his actions on the course of history. The background depiction of a ship and money symbolizes the financial and maritime dimensions of the conflict, further underscoring the political and economic stakes of the struggle for power and liberty.
