The fourteen essays in this collection explore the dominance of patronage in Renaissance politics, religion, theatre, and artistic life. The primary focus is England, from the reign of Henry VII to that of James I, but several of the studies also deal with France and Italy.

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. French Legitimists and the Politics of Moral Order in the Early Third Republic. Slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. Traditionally, the legitimists of early Third Republican Frane have been dismissed as historical anachronisms. To arrive at a fuller understanding of these men, the author has ysed French publich archives, libraries, and previously ignored private sources to investigate the divine right monarchists and the nature of their protest. Professor Locke concentrates on two hundred legitimists in the National Assembly of 1871. He identifies the legitimists socially and occupationally, and evaluates their response to such problems of modernization as industrialization, urbanization, bureaucratization and democratization. The author analyzes letitinmist ideas within the context of the immediate historical situation, and contrasts the social-economic background and mentality of the legitimists with that of other French and European monarchists. Far from being anachronisms, the legitimists of Professor Locke's study emerge as men of diverse social-economic origins who frequently accepted economic change and innovation - men who wanted to restore the old monarchy, but not necessarily the old regime. Their charactersitics, the author shows, have an affinity with those of all groups who try to uphold traditional beliefs in a changing world. 321 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Why Tolerate Religion? This provocative book addresses one of the most enduring puzzles in political philosopy and constitutional theory - why is religion singled out for preferential treatment in both law and public discourse? Why, for example, can a religious soup kitchen get an exemption from zoing laws in order to expand its facilities to better serve the needy, while a secular soup kitchen with the same goal cannot? Why is a Sikh boy permitted to wear his ceremonial dagger to school while any other boy could be expelled for packing a knife? Why are religious obglications that conflict with the law accorded special toleration while other obligations of conscience are not? In this book, the author argues that that the reasons have nothing to do with religion, and that Western democracies are wrong to single out religious liberty for special legal protections. He offers new insights into what makes a claim of conscience distinctively 'religious', and draws on a wealth of examples from America, Europe, and elsewhere to highlight the important issues at stake. With philosophical acuity, legal insight, and wry humour, the author shows why our reasons for tolerating religion are not specific to religion but apply to all claims of conscience, and why a government committed to liberty of conscience is not required by the principle of toleration to grant exemptions to laws that promote the general welfare. 187 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.)
