Download or read book Ideas of monarchical reform written by Andrew Mansfield and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the political works of Andrew Michael Ramsay (1683–1743) within the context of early eighteenth-century British and French political thought. In the first monograph on Ramsay in English for over sixty years, the author uses Ramsay to engage in a broader evaluation of the political theory in the two countries and the exchange between them. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, Britain and France were on divergent political paths. Yet in the first three decades of that century, the growing impetus of mixed government in Britain influenced the political theory of its long-standing enemy. Shaped by experiences and ideologies of the seventeenth century, thinkers in both states exhibited a desire to produce great change by integrating past wisdom with modern knowledge. A Scottish Jacobite émigré living in Paris, Ramsay employed a synthesis of British and French principles to promote a Stuart restoration to the British throne that would place Britain at the centre of a co-operative Europe. Mansfield reveals that Ramsay was an important intellectual conduit for the two countries, whose contribution to the history of political thought has been greatly under appreciated. Including extensive analysis of the period between the 1660s and 1730s in Britain and France, this book will be of interest to scholars and students with an interest in political, religious, intellectual, and cultural history, as well as the early Enlightenment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chen Ren, who possessed the blood of the three races, had coincidentally obtained the teachings of the Blacksmith Saint and chose the path of a Magician that no one had ever succeeded in cultivating. The path of cultivation was filled with obstacles and thorns, and one mistake would result in death. It was true that taking the old route of cultivation would reduce the danger, but how could one reach the peak of cultivation by following the old path? I have the blood of the human race, so I value friendship; I have the blood of the elves, so I love peace and never bully the weak; but, if you think I am easy to bully, then I also have the blood of the demons, I can attack you with my sword without a word! He could be happy to avenge his benefactors, slaughter his enemies, and slaughter his way out of the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood!

Download or read book The Empire of the Self written by Christopher Star and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christopher Star uncovers significant points of contact between Seneca and Petronius, two important Roman writers long thought to be antagonists. In The Empire of the Self, Christopher Star studies the question of how political reality affects the concepts of body, soul, and self. Star argues that during the early Roman Empire the establishment of autocracy and the development of a universal ideal of individual autonomy were mutually enhancing phenomena. The Stoic ideal of individual empire or complete self-command is a major theme of Seneca’s philosophical works. The problematic consequences of this ideal are explored in Seneca’s dramatic and satirical works, as well as in the novel of his contemporary Petronius. Star examines the rhetorical links between these diverse texts. He also demonstrates a significant point of contact between two writers generally thought to be antagonists—the idea that imperial speech structures reveal the self.
Download or read book Handywork of the Trinity written by Roy Crase and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been said that if you want to know what God is like, then look at the creation. This intriguing thesis will be examined. The numerous discoveries of science are like a picture puzzle scattered far and wide. Yet, if the physical, social, and philosophical sciences are considered in overview, the puzzle pieces are seen to interlock with wonderful clarity. From the smallest to the largest components, relationships, and concepts, they are readily classified in units of three. This structuring of reality is so pervasive at every level, that it boggles the imagination. This book explains in detail how the triadic design of nature is best understood as the unique Handiwork of the Trinity.
