by Thomas L. Pangle



Product Description:

The Spirit of Modern Republicanism sets forth a radical reinterpretation
of the foundations on which the American regime was constructed. Thomas L.
Pangle argues that the Founders had a dramatically new vision of civic
virtue, religious faith, and intellectual life, rooted in an unprecedented
commitment to private and economic liberties. It is in the thought of John
Locke that Pangle finds the fullest elaboration of the principles
supporting the Founders' moral vision.
