  • Milton and Republicanism
    This volume brings together an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars to consider Milton's republicanism in the context of the European republican tradition and in the political and literary circumstances of Interregnum England. It draws on the expertise of both historians and literary critics to examine the classical sources of Milton's republicanism, the genesis of that republicanism in the 1640s, its disappointment in the 1650s and its presence in his work (particularly in Paradise Lost) after the Restoration. Milton's thought is compared with that of his predecessors and contemporaries, and attention is given to his role as a transmitter of republican values in the later seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Milton's prose works and his poetry are given equal coverage, making this the first collaborative volume to attempt a comprehensive thematic assessment of his political and literary career. DAVID ARMITAGE is Associate Professor of History at Columbia University. He is the editor of Bolingbroke: Political Writings for Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought (1997) and Theories of Empire 1450-1800 (1997). ARMAND HiMYis Professor of English at the Universite de Paris X - Nanterre. QUENTIN SKINNER is Regius Professor of Modern History in the University of Cambridge. A Fellow of Christ's College, Cambridge, he is also a Fellow of the British Academy, an Honorary Foreign Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a Fellow of the Academia Europaea. His many publications include The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (1978, 2 vols.), Machiavelli (1981) and Reason and Rhetoric in the Philosophy of Hobbes (1996).
