More about the book
Focusing on the intersection of republican writing and the English Revolution, the book explores how classical republicanism was adapted to serve a religious transformation. Jonathan Scott provides a comprehensive analysis that connects various social, political, and intellectual agendas, moving beyond single-author studies. He argues that the ideology of this period was rooted in Christian humanist moral philosophy, emphasizing its practical application in efforts to radically reform societal behavior rather than merely political structures.
