The Political Theory of the Schoolmen and Grotius is a three-part book written by John Martin Littlejohn and first published in 1894. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the political theories of the medieval schoolmen and the 17th-century Dutch jurist Hugo Grotius. In the first part of the book, Littlejohn examines the political theories of the schoolmen, who were medieval theologians and philosophers. He discusses their views on the nature of political authority, the role of the state, and the relationship between church and state. Littlejohn also explores the influence of Aristotle and St. Augustine on the political thought of the schoolmen.The second part of the book focuses on the political theory of Hugo Grotius, a prominent figure in the development of modern international law. Littlejohn analyzes Grotius's views on natural law, the state of nature, and the social contract. He also discusses Grotius's ideas about the rights of individuals and the duties of rulers.In the third and final part of the book, Littlejohn compares and contrasts the political theories of the schoolmen and Grotius. He examines the similarities and differences between their views on issues such as the role of reason in politics, the relationship between law and morality, and the nature of political authority.Overall, The Political Theory of the Schoolmen and Grotius is an important work of political philosophy that provides a detailed analysis of the ideas of two influential thinkers. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political thought or the development of modern political theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
