摘要

摘要:长期以来，学者们认识到自由在弥尔顿早期散文中的重要性，但他们的分析往往集中于共和主义。虽然弥尔顿后来表达了共和主义，但他早期的小册子将自由与英国的政治和法律传统而非古典传统联系在一起。弥尔顿在其早期的小册子中使用了古代宪法和普通法的语言，他将自由的中心放在英国公民的财产和身体上，从而以独特的英国术语来界定自由。此外，弥尔顿的早期散文接受了君主的权力，揭示了弥尔顿最初对现有政治结构的承诺。

"The right we have to our owne bodies, goods, and liberties": The Freedom of the Ancient Constitution and Common Law in Milton's Early Prose

Abstract:

Scholars have long recognized the importance of liberty in Milton's early prose, but they tend to center their analysis on republicanism. Although he would go on to express republicanism, Milton's early tracts tie liberty to English political and legal traditions rather than classical ones. Milton, in his early tracts, utilizes the language of the ancient constitution and the common law as he centers liberty on the property and bodies of English citizens, thus framing liberty in distinctly English terms. Additionally, Milton's early prose accepts the power of the monarch, revealing Milton's initial commitment to the existing political structure.

期刊介绍： Since its inception in 1940, the Journal of the History of Ideas has served as a medium for the publication of research in intellectual history that is of common interest to scholars and students in a wide range of fields. It is committed to encouraging diversity in regional coverage, chronological range, and methodological approaches. JHI defines intellectual history expansively and ecumenically, including the histories of philosophy, of literature and the arts, of the natural and social sciences, of religion, and of political thought. It also encourages scholarship at the intersections of cultural and intellectual history — for example, the history of the book and of visual culture.
