This research paper: A 10 page book review that contrasts and compares 2 texts. Colin Martin and Geoffrey Parker in their text The Spanish Armada, which was published in 1999, and Garrett Mattingly in The Armada, which was first published in 1959, address the subject of the English defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. Mattingly's text, which has since become a classic text in the historiography of the Armada, proposes that the previous scholarship overlooked the significance of competing worldviews in this landmark conflict. Mattingly feels that the struggle between England and Spain was not simply over who would rule the seas and the economic interests of the New World, but also that it was a battle of ideologies. While Martin and Parker largely support this interpretation and expand on it, they also address the significance of the economic factors referred to by Mattingly and add to this body of knowledge through their comprehensive research. No additional sources cited.
