Description

Quentin Skinner's classic study The Foundations of Modern Political Thought was first published by Cambridge in 1978.

This was the first of a series of outstanding publications that have changed forever the way the history of political thought is taught and practised.

Rethinking the Foundations of Modern Political Thought looks afresh at the impact of the original work, asks why it still matters, and considers a number of significant agendas that it still inspires.

A very distinguished international team of contributors has been assembled, including John Pocock, Richard Tuck and David Armitage, and the result is an unusually powerful and cohesive contribution to the history of ideas, of interest to large numbers of students of early modern history and political thought.

In conclusion, Skinner replies to each chapter and presents his own thoughts on the latest trends and the future direction of the history of political thought.
