This text seeks to create a new interpretation of early modern
political thought. Where most accounts assume that modern thought
followed a decisive break with Christianity, Joshua Mitchell
asserts that the line between the age of faith and that of reason
is not quite so clear. Instead, he argues that the ideas of Luther,
Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau draw on history, rather than reason
alone, for a sense of political authority. This ambitious work
crosses disciplinary boundaries to attempt to expose unsuspected
connections between political theory, religion, and history.
