Abstract

In a number of articles I have discussed the events leading to Archbishop Rinuccini's censure of the supporters of the truce with Inchiquin in May 1648, and outlined some of the more important of the many controversies which arose from it. 1 In this article I hope to round off the question by discussing the de­fence put forward for their courses of action by Rinuccini and the Supreme Council of the confederation respectively. In addition, it will be useful to consider the analysis of the situation made by Rinuccini's chief apologist, one might say indeed his semi-official apologist, as this introduces points which help us to assess more fully the value of Rinuccini's self-defence.
