內容簡介
在政治理論領域，“劍橋政治思想史原著系列”作為主要的學生教科叢書，如今已牢固確立了其地位。本叢書旨在使學生能夠獲得從古希臘到20世紀初期西方政治思想史方面所有最為重要的原著。它囊括了所有著名的經典原著，但與此同時，它又擴展了傳統的評價尺度，以便能夠納入範圍廣泛、不那么出名的作品。而在此之前，這些作品中有許多從未有過現代英文版本可資利用。只要可能，所選原著都會以完整而不刪節的形式出版，其中的譯作則是專門為本叢書的目的而安排。每一本書都有一個評論性的導言，加上歷史年表、生平梗概、進一步閱讀指南，以及必要的辭彙表和原文註解。
本叢書的最終目的是，為西方政治思想的整個發展脈絡提供一個清晰的輪廓。

Usurpation cannot survive in this period of our civilization
Can usurpation not be maintained by force?
The kind of liberty offered to men at the end of the last
century

Does the aversion of the modems for this pretended liberty
imply that they love despotism?

human existence
