«'Each chapter of the volume offers a distinctive perspective on neo-Roman liberty, exploring it in familiar and less familiar historical contexts. Together, they demonstrate its centrality in the history of political thought and pay fine tribute to Quentin Skinner's retrieval of this pivotal aspect of our intellectual heritage.' Markku Peltonen, Society»
«'As someone who has had Liberty before Liberalism on my syllabus for a few years now, I cannot but welcome a new publication aimed at rethinking Skinner's book … The new volume has a lot to offer to those who developed a thirst for an intellectual sequel after reading the original work.' Evgeny Roshchin, Redescriptions: Political Thought, Conceptual History and Feminist Theory»
«'Rethinking Liberty Before Liberalism succeeds magnificently as a tribute to the achievement of Liberty Before Liberalism, as a substantive contribution to the history of political thought, and as an addition to the corpus of political philosophy itself.' David Armitage, University of Harvard»
