Why did European civilisation develop as it did? Why was it so
different from that of Russia, the Islamic world and elsewhere? In
this new textbook Antony Black explores some of the reasons,
looking at ideas of the state, law, rulership, representation of
the community, and the right to self-administration, and how,
during a crucial period these became embedded in people's
self-awareness, and articulated and justified by theorists. This is
the first concise overview of a period never previously treated
satisfactorily as a whole: Dr Black uses the analytical tools of
scholars such as Pocock and Skinner to set the work of political
theorists in the context of both contemporary politics and the
longer-term history of political ideas. The book provides students
of both medieval history and political thought with an accessible
and lucid introduction to the early development of certain ideas
fundamental to the organisation of the modern world and contains a
full bibliography to assist students wishing to pursue the subject
in greater depth.
