Bøker av Janet (London School of Economics and Political Science) Coleman

Janet Colemana s two volume history of European political theorising, from the ancient Greeks to the Renaissance is the introduction which many have been waiting for.

This book examines how medieval readers interpreted and used history as presented to them in ancient documents and how this interpretation differs from and resembles that proposed by modern historians.

Focuses on medieval and Renaissance thinkers and includes a discussion of the practices that underpinned medieval political theories and which continued to play crucial roles in the eventual development of early-modern political institutions and debates.
