Book Description
This collection of essays, all by preeminent exponents of the history of political thought, explores the political ideologies of early modern Britain. Organized on a broadly chronological basis, the topics addressed by individual scholars reflect in general the themes initiated and inspired by the work of the distinguished intellectual historian, J. G. A. Pocock, for whom the collection is intended as a tribute. Each of the sixteen contributors have thought long and critically about Pocock's seminal contributions to the subject, and in each essay engages with the debates he has provoked. Professor Pocock has responded to the essays and provided his personal interpretation of the themes they invoke.
"...as a contribution to contextual understanding the volume as a whole is an apt and well-deserved tribute to J.G.A. Pocock." -- Canadian Philosophical Reviews
"This is a festschrift for the indefatigable J.G.A. Pocock. The essays are better than what usually end up stuck in such volumes: better as a simple matter of scholarly quality, but better too as exemplary models of what is distinctive in Pocock's approach." -- Don Herzog, American Political Science Review
"...a stimulating and learned set of essays that make consistently original contributions to our understanding of aspects of the intellectual history of English politics between the Reformation and the American Revolution. The language of contemporary politics is minutely analyzed and new relationships are discussed." -- Michael G. Finlayson, Albion
"Those who teach courses that contain a generous helping of English political ideas...will find the essays both challenging and beneficial...the books are essential for any library with good history and political science holdings. Anyone who teaches a graduate seminar on the Tudor or Stuart period can expect that students with strong British history backgrounds will find the essays very though provoking, and the ideas developed should generate considerable discussion." -- K. Gird Romer, Teaching History
