Features: Edited by Ramond Geuss, Professor of Modern History at the University of Cambridge In the field of political theory, the "Cambridge History of Political Thought: Original Series" has firmly established itself as a primary student textbook series. This series aims to enable students to access all the most important original works in the history of Western political thought from ancient Greece to the early 20th century. It includes all the renowned classic works, but at the same time, it expands the traditional evaluation criteria to include a wide range of less famous works that have previously had few modern English translations available. Whenever possible, the selected original works are published in their complete and unedited form, with translations specifically arranged for the purpose of this series. Each book features a critical introduction, along with a historical chronology, biographical sketches, further reading guides, and necessary glossaries and annotations. The ultimate goal of this series is to provide a clear outline of the entire development of Western political thought. For a list of published works in this series, please refer to the end of the book.
