Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - Samuel Pufendorfs An Introduction to the History of the Principal Kingdoms and States of Europe (1682) became one of his most famous, widely reprinted, and influential works. Originally dictated in German as student lectures, it was translated into the major European languages and underwent numerous editions and transformations during the eighteenth century. Its complex publication history is sketched in four appendices to the current, Liberty Fund edition. -- The Introduction clarifies the connection between Pufendorfs natural law theory and his historical works. In the Preface and the end-of-chapter analyses of different states interests (including those of the papacy as a political force), Pufendorf associates the internal and external affairs of states and exhibits the relation of natural and international law. The Introduction thus facilitated the transition between seventeenth-century constitutional concerns and eighteenth-century inter-state relations. -- The Introductions wealth of historical detail and frank assessment of particular states interests appealed to both statesmen and general readers eager to orient themselves in a volatile European context, and the book quickly became a best-seller. It remains of interest to anyone concerned with the links between politics and history, the development of early modern historiography, and the new natural law context in which these particular disciplines took shape. It makes available to contemporary scholars and students a carefully edited, extensively annotated, helpfully segmented, and historically situated English version of one of Pufendorfs most influential works.
