Although print spread across England in the eighteenth century in the same way that it did in France, it did not produce the same kind of homogenization in the former as the latter. This was because England had stronger oral traditions of common law, and the medieval instutition of Parliament. As a result, there has never been an English Revolution of entire rejection of monarchy the way there was in France.[1]
