Rethinking Medieval and Renaissance Political Thought by Chris Jones

Rethinking Medieval and Renaissance Political Thought by Chris Jones

This collection of essays, written by leading experts, showcases historiographical problems, fresh interpretations, and new debates in medieval and Renaissance history and political thought.

"Chris Jones and Takashi Shogimen have done a wonderful job in collecting a series of exemplary essays on medieval and Renaissance political thoughtThis book ranges over key methodological debates and salient topics, such as toleration, the common good, the influence of Cicero, and republicanism. It demonstrates new developments in the field and its relevance to an understanding of European and indeed global political thought through critical engagement with Cary Nederman’s voluminous work in this field."

Antony Black, Emeritus Professor in the History of Political Thought, University of Dundee

"As [Shogimen and Jones] point out in their introduction this field has been marked by especially active debate and development in recent decades, and at the center of much of this has been Cary Nederman (with whom I have often myself engaged), so it is entirely appropriate for them to focus their book on reactions to his contribution. To this end they have assembled an impressive group of eminent scholars on a wide variety of topics."

James M. Blythe, Professor Emeritus of Medieval European History, University of Memphis
