Though conditioned by the specific circumstances of eleventh-century Europe, the launching of the crusades presupposed a long historical evolution of the idea of Christian knighthood and holy war. Carl Erdmann developed this argument first in 1935 in a book that is still recognised as basic to an understanding of how the crusades came about. This first edition in English includes...Paperback$29800Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 2-3 weeks -
John Stuart Mill and Representative Government
Although Mill regarded Considerations on Representative Government as a mature statement of his theory of democracy, critics have tended to treat it less seriously than most of his other major works.

Drawing where appropriate on other writings by Mill, the author restores a balanced...Paperback$8700Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks -

The Sovereignty of Reason is a survey of the rule of faith controversy in seventeenth-century England.

The two studies, Indivisible Magnitudes and Aristotle and Epicurus on Voluntary Action, explain two doctrines in the philosophy of Epicurus.
