About this listen

Chelsi Arellano is an Assistant Professor specializing in 17th century early modern European history focusing on the British empire. With an academic background from Florida State University and extensive research experience in gender, race and ethnicity, she brings a wealth of knowledge on topics like popular politics and imperial history. Recently, she finished her dissertation entitled 'Glorious Change, Imperial Revolution: The Role of Gender, Politics, and the Popular during the Reign of William III and Mary II,' which argues that the Glorious Revolution was more broadly popular and advanced by a more diverse range of participants than is currently acknowledged within the secondary literature. By examining England, the Caribbean, North America, and the East India Companies, this study demonstrates the degree to which popular opinion shaped the Glorious Revolution and was always a concern for those at the highest levels of the revolutionary regime. It expands the concept of "the popular" to include race, class, and gender, suggesting new approaches to understanding how William and Mary leveraged popular support to reshape the early British Empire.
