"Talmudical commonwealthsmen" and the rise of republican exclusivism -- "For the land is mine" : the Hebrew commonwealth and the rise of redistribution -- Hebrew theocracy and the rise of toleration. |
| Summary |
"According to a commonplace narrative, the rise of modern political thought in the West resulted from secularization - the exclusion of religious arguments from political discourse. But in this work Eric Nelson argues that this familiar story is wrong. Instead, he contends, political thought in early-modern Europe became less, not more, secular with time, and it was the Christian encounter with Hebrew sources that provoked this radical transformation."--Jacket. |
