Paul Monod

Paul Kléber Monod (born 25 June 1957) is a Canadian-born academic historian specializing in Jacobitism and British history in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Since 1984 he has taught at Middlebury College, Vermont, where he is now A. Barton Hepburn Professor of History, and he is the author of a number of books and articles dealing with his period.

[1] His first book, Jacobitism and the English People, 1688-1788 (1989) has been considered "an important monograph",[3] although it has also been criticized for being "overly sympathetic to the Stuart cause.

"[4] The Murder of Mr Grebell: Madness and Civility in an English Town (2003) begins with the murder of a justice of the peace in the English port of Rye in 1743, considering its background as far back as the Reformation of the 16th century, then looks at events over the next two hundred years.

[5] His book Solomon's Secret Arts (2013) grew out of work he did in the 1990s on the papers of Samuel Jeake (1623–1690), an astrologer.
