O knihe
The essays in this work address a wide variety of contemporary, political, and religious issues. My essay on The Colour of Justice dwells on a bleak description of the British police based on the play written Richard Norton-Taylor: police officers are corrupt and bear compelling evidence of underground racism when dealing with the death of young Stephen Lawrence. The philosophical reflection of Lévinas informs the central part of this essay.Early modern political theory is also duly addressed in this book. In my essay, I reconsider the traditional reception of John Milton. I show how the Puritan (and supposed republican) writer, poet, and intellectual had royalist leanings when one considers the political framework of his unaccomplished historiographical work History of Britain (1670). I emphasise the fact that Milton is a forerunner of the contractarian theory and is engaged in medievalism, the recreation of the Middle Ages by post-medieval cultures, especially when it comes to the role of King Alfred the Great, the Anglo-Saxon monarch who was to repel Vikings raids in southern England.
