Radical Republicanism in Early Modern Europe

Series: 

Radical Republicanism in Early Modern Europe challenges the conventional narrative of republican political thought by shifting the spotlight from familiar, moderate figures to the often-overlooked radicals who pushed the boundaries of early modern republicanism. By applying the lens of “radical republicanism” to the early modern period, the contributors to this volume offer fresh insights into the revolutionary possibilities embedded in republican thought—insights that resonate far beyond their historical context. Aimed at historians, political theorists, and anyone interested in the roots of democratic dissent, this book opens new avenues for rethinking the legacy and future of republicanism itself.

Contributors are: Jérémie Barthas, Alessandro Mulieri, John McCormick, Filippo del Lucchese, Elia Zaru, Saul Newman, Gaby Mahlberg, Rachel Hammersley, Geertje Bol, Alan Coffee, Nicolai von Eggers, Ariane Fichtl, and Ross Carrol.
