Making use of unexplored primary material and adopting an innovative contextual approach, Cuttica provides a long-overdue account of an often referred-to but largely misunderstood thinker. By focusing on Filmer's most important writing, Patriarcha (written in the 1620s-30s but published in 1680), this monograph rethinks some crucial issues in the reading of political history in the seventeenth century. Most importantly, it invites new reflections on the theory of patriarchalism and gives novel insights into the place of patriotism in the development of English political discourse and identity.Thanks to its originality in both approach and content, this volume will be of interest to historians of early modern England as well as scholars of political thought.Politics, culture, and society in early modern Britain.MonarchyGreat BritainHistory17th centuryContext.Filmer.Patriarchalism.Patriotism.Political thought.Stuart era.MonarchyHistory321.6Cuttica Cesare1534183MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797112503321Sir Robert Filmer (1588-1653) and the patriotic monarch3781520UNINA
