Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought is now firmly
established as the major student textbook series in political theory. It aims
to make available to students all the most important texts in the history of
western political thought, from ancient Greece to the early twentieth
century. All the familiar classic texts will be included, but the series seeks
at the same time to enlarge the conventional canon by incorporating
an extensive range of less well-known works, many of them never before
available in a modern English edition. Wherever possible, texts are
published plete and unabridged form, and translations are specially
commissioned for the series. Each volume contains a critical introduction
together with chronologies, biographical sketches, a guide to further read-
ing and any necessary glossaries and textual apparatus. pleted
the series will aim to offer an outline of the entire evolution of western
political thought.
