The Political Theory of the Schoolmen and Grotius is a three-part book written by John Martin Littlejohn and published in 1894. The book explores the political theories of the Schoolmen, a group of medieval scholars who combined Christian theology with classical philosophy, and Hugo Grotius, a 17th-century Dutch jurist and philosopher. In the first part of the book, Littlejohn provides an overview of the political theories of the Schoolmen, including their views on natural law, the relationship between church and state, and the role of the ruler in society. He also discusses the influence of Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas on their thinking.The second part of the book focuses on the political theories of Grotius, including his views on natural law, the social contract, and the relationship between the individual and the state. Littlejohn also examines Grotius' influence on later political thinkers, including John Locke and Immanuel Kant.In the third and final part of the book, Littlejohn compares and contrasts the political theories of the Schoolmen and Grotius, highlighting their similarities and differences. He also discusses the relevance of their ideas to contemporary political thought.Overall, The Political Theory of the Schoolmen and Grotius is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the political theories of two influential thinkers. It provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political thought or the development of 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.
