Intellectual history and early modern history have always occupied
an important place in Past and Present. First published in 1974,
this volume is a collection of original articles and debates,
published in the journal between 1953 and May 1973, dealing with
many aspects of the intellectual history of the seventeenth
century. Several of the contributions have been extremely
influential, and the debates represent major standpoints in
controversies over genesis of modern ideas. Although England is the
focus of attention for most of the contributors, their themes have
wider significance. Among the topics covered in the collection are
the political thought of the Levellers and of James Harrington;
radical social movements of the Puritan Revolution; the ideological
context of physiological theories associated with William Harvey;
the relationship between science and religion and the social
relations of science; and the function of millenariansim and
eschatology in the seventeenth century. The editor's Introduction
indicates the context in which the articles were composed and
provides valuable bibliographical information about the subjects
discussed.
