具體描述
This extended essay by one of the world's leading historians seeks, in its first part, to excavate, and to vindicate, the neo-Roman theory of free citizens and free states as it developed in early-modern Britain. This analysis leads on to a powerful defence of the nature, purposes and goals of intellectual history and the history of ideas. As Quentin Skinner says, 'the intellectual historian can help us to appreciate how far the values embodied in our present way of life, and our present ways of thinking about those values, reflect a series of choices made at different times between different possible worlds'. This essay thus provides one of the most substantial statements yet made about the importance, relevance and potential excitement of this form of historical enquiry. Liberty before Liberalism is based on Quentin Skinner's Inaugural Lecture as Regius Professor of Modern History in the University of Cambridge, delivered in November 1997. Professor Skinner has been awarded the Balzan Prize Life Time Achievement Award for Political Thought, History and Theory.

##【按語：這本小冊子堪稱《霍布斯與共和主義自由》的姊妹篇，解釋瞭在17世紀中葉英國革命時期的新羅馬理論傢（new-roman theorist）or共和派的自由觀念及其溯源演變。 新羅馬理論傢主張：公民自由必須在與自由政府的關係中得到理解，後者中由所有平等公民的意誌來製定法律，而自...

評分##最近寫的論文是從批評斯金納的一個研究開始的，不過跟polit哲學史沒關係，對這個話題感興趣，就找來看瞭。讀斯金納的確不會失望，想給十顆星。研究彌爾頓的文學批評傢也都應該讀讀。這本書也是英文學術寫作的典範。
評分##Namier-Butterfield-Pocock的史學史問題隨處可見，“自由”問題則明顯展露齣Berlin觀念的過量溢齣。頗受前代影響的學術關懷，也許纔是Skinner總是拋棄處於顯著地位的清教-神學論爭，而換之以所謂“新羅馬”的真實原因。

評分 評分##斯金納的故事和內容與波考剋分析英國革命的部分大體一緻，不過相比波考剋挖掘現代政治容納“特殊性”的宏大理論野心而言，斯金納更像一個講故事的老者。斯金納延續瞭他在《霍布斯與共和主義自由》中的分析套路，並將共和派的哲學立場追溯到馬基雅維利——在分析共和派的立場時，馬基雅維利的引文都會準點齣場。不過，從學者的分析看，他對馬基雅維利闡釋並不成功，彌爾頓和哈靈頓的原始文本也很難支持他的分析。
