Excerpt from From Renaissance to Revolution: A Study of the Influence of the Renaissance Upon the Political Development of Europe

What made the mediaeval group differ still more from its modern successors was its relation to its members. The status and opinions of a modern man need not depend upon his membership of a particular group: of two men bred to the same trade one may become a landowning peer, the other be alandless day-labourer all his life one may be a Plymouth Brother and'the other an Old Catholic one a communist, the other a Tory. To-day, in short, the individual is more important than his group.
