This volume makes available for the first time in English the
writings about the Holy Roman Empire by Marsiglio of Padua
(c.1275-1342), one of the most influential and original political
thinkers of the Latin Middle Ages. Included are two major texts.
The Defensor minor is a restatement and defence of the doctrines of
Marsiglio's best known work, the Defensor pacis. As such it adds to
our understanding of his previous thought while giving new
dimensions to his theory. De translatione imperii (On the Transfer
of the Empire) is a form of appendix to the Defensor pacis, in
which Marsiglio's general intellectual framework is applied to an
historical assessment of the legitimacy of the exercise of imperial
power by the German king outside the authorisation of the pope.
