He was trained in scholastic theology and philosophy at Paris, and his writings are invaluable for summarising many of the metaphysical speculations of his time. The Policraticus is his main work, and is regarded as the first complete work of political theory to be written in the Latin Middle Ages. Cary Nederman's 1991 edition and translation is primarily aimed at undergraduate students of the history of political thought and medieval history. His translation shows how important this text is in understanding the mores, forms of conduct and beliefs of the most powerful and learned segments of twelfth-century Western Europe.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nReview\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nRegarded as the first complete work of political theory of the Latin Middle Ages, the importance of the Policraticus, for understanding the most influential segments of twelfth century Western Europe, is now revealed in an original translation. --\u003cbr\u003e\nBook Description\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBook Description\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCary Nederman's 1991 edition and translation of the Policraticus by John of Salisbury (c.1115–1180), the foremost political theorist of his age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521367011\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.5 x 5.4 x 0.7 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50226632884528,"sku":"Trans_9780521367011","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/61h738SsemL.jpg?v=1760691062","url":"https:\/\/retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/policraticus-of-the-frivolities-of-courtiers-and-the-footprints-of-philosophers","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
