    This cross-disciplinary collection of essays examines ? for the first time and in detail ? the variegated notions of democracy put forward in seventeenth-century England. It thus shows that democracy was widely explored and debated at the time; that anti-democratic currents and themes have a long history; that the seventeenth century is the first period in English history where we nonetheless find positive views of democracy; and that whether early-modern writers criticised or advocated it, these discussions were important for the subsequent development of the concept and practice ?democracy?.

    By offering a new historical account of such development, the book provides an innovative exploration of an important but overlooked topic whose relevance is all the more considerable in today?s political debates, civic conversation, academic arguments and media talk.



    Contributors include Camilla Boisen, Alan Cromartie, Cesare Cuttica, Hannah Dawson, Martin Dzelzainis, Rachel Foxley, Matthew Growhoski, Rachel Hammersley, Peter Lake, Gaby Mahlberg, Markku Peltonen, Edward Vallance, and John West.

    ?Enlisting 11 other accomplished scholars of early modern England, Cuttica and Peltonen explore the rhetoric of democracy and antidemocracy in English political pamphlet literature of the 17th century, a tumultuous time in early modern England [...]. Summing up: recommended?.

    E. J. Eisenach, in: Choice 57 (5), January 2020.



    ?This is an important, scholarly, and well-written collection of essays. The authors base their arguments on a mass of primary sources, many of which have rarely been used before.[...] Overall, this is an excellent and wideranging collection of essays on important topics?.

    Johann Sommerville, University of Wisconsin?Madison. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 74, No. 1 (Spring 2021), pp. 307?309.



    ?thought-provoking and insightful.?

    Jason Peacey, University College London. In: Journal of British Studies, Vol. 60, No. 3 (July 2021), pp. 699?701.



    [...]?c?est peut-?tre ici que réside le principal enjeu du travail délicat d?histoire contextualisée des usages de la catégorie de démocratie (et d?anti-démocratie) que propose cet ouvrage : inviter le lecteur ? s?interroger, ? l?aide de l?histoire, sur ce que signifie, présuppose et implique de se réclamer d?un idéal politique affirmant, selon les mots de The Government of the People of England (1650) écrit par un certain John Parker dont on ne sait pas grand-chose, que:?all government is in the people, from the people, and for the people??.
