Reconstituting Empire: Charters and State Formation in Early Modern England with Boone Ayala
-
Narrated by:

Written by:
In this episode of Historians & Their Histories, we speak with Boone Ayala. He discusses his research on chartered corporations as instruments of imperial rule and his work at the MHS on the 1684 revocation of the Massachusetts Bay Company's charter, which he situates within a broader assault on corporate autonomy happening simultaneously across England. We also hear about his path from computer science major to historian and some objects he encountered in the MHS collections, including a musket from the 1689 siege of Fort Hill and Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor John Leverett's blood-stained buff coat from the English Civil Wars.
Boone J. Ayala is a recipient of the W.B.H. Dowse Fellowship from the MHS.
