神圣共和國(guó)

內(nèi)容概要

A Holy Commomvealth was written in 1659 by the Pruriten,minister Richard Baxter,and proved to be the most controversial of all his works,He Publicly repudiated it in 1670,and in 1683 the Oxford University authorities orderred it to be part of a book-burning that included the words of Hobbes and Milton.The scandal that surrounded it has obscured its merits as the most candid of confessions as to why a conservative Puritan fought for Protectorate .The views it expresses are at variance with the cautious explanations given in Baxter`s later memoirs .This edition of A Holy Commomvealth makes available to modern readers a work which offers a unique perpective on the relation between Church and mahistrate in a Christian Commonwealth and on the origins of the English Civil War.
