| Tóm tắt: | The republican writing of the English revolution has attracted a major scholarly literature. Yet there has been no single-volume treatment of the subject, nor has it been adequately related to the larger upheaval from which it emerged, or to the larger body of radical thought of which it became the most influential component. Commonwealth Principles addresses these needs, and Jonathan Scott goes beyond existing accounts organised around a single key concept (whether constitutional, linguistic or moral) or author (usually James Harrington) to analyse this body of writing as a whole. Linking various social, political and intellectual agendas Professor Scott explains why, when classical republicanism came to England, it did so in the moral service of a religious revolution." "Jonathan Scott is now established as one of the most important historians of the seventeenth century writing today. This association of author and topic will render Commonwealth Principles essential reading for numerous scholars of British history, political theory and English literature. |
