This textbook anthology contains new translations of a selection of
important works of medieval political theory. It includes both well
known figures such as Thomas Aquinas and John of Salisbury and
lesser known figures, including two women, Christine de Pizan and
Marie de France. Cary Nederman and Kate Forhan have made their
selections on the basis of intellectual importance, geographical
range and representativeness. The volume encompasses texts from the
Latinized regions of Western Europe, including England, France,
Germany and Italy, and gives expression to a wide range of medieval
perspectives on politics. A general discussion of medieval
political culture introduces the book: the editors identify the
main historical religious and philosophical assumptions
underpinning the medieval political tradition. This textbook is
designed for students of political theory and aims to expose them
directly to the texts without enmeshing them in complexities beyond
the scope of an introductory course. It is also suitable for
students of medieval history and philosophy.
