This book takes a close look at the aristocracy's understanding of a free constitution and at the nobility's complex relationship with the monarchy. Central themes are the old notion of mixed government, classical republican conceptions of liberty and patriotism, as well as noble thoughts on the rights and duties of the citizen, including the right to rebellion against an unrighteous ruler. The study is a conceptual analysis of public and private political statements made by members of the nobility, such as Diet speeches and personal correspondence. The book contributes to the large body of research on estate-based identities and the transformation of political language in the second half of the eighteenth century by connecting Swedish political ideals and concepts to their European context." 410 0$aStudia Fennica.$pHistorica ;$v15. 606 $aNobility$zSweden$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aAristocracy (Political science)$zSweden$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aSweden$xPolitics and government$y18th century 615 0$aNobility$xHistory 615 0$aAristocracy (Political science)$xHistory 676 $a948.503 700 $aWolff$b Charlotta$f1976-,$0857781 801 0$bAuAdUSA 801 1$bAuAdUSA 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910153744703321 996 $aNoble conceptions of politics in eighteenth-century Sweden (ca 1740?1790)$91915297 997 $aUNINA
