Reviews

""Somos and Peters have managed to offer a collection of essays which both deepens and challenges our knowledge of these authors by setting them in new contexts and juxtaposing their work to that of their contemporaries, antecedents, and followers. […] The chapters in this collection show that state of nature as a multi-faceted and versatile concept, whose origins can be traced back much further than the early modern period. […] informative, highly readable and generally concise, the chapters in this book can be studied individually or as a whole as useful introductions to new research"". Gaby Mahlberg in European Review of History, 30 (2), 2023.
