Summary

The first chapter of this book puts League political thought into its immediate historical and publishing context, by way of an extended introduction to the range of material considered in the rest of this book. A distinction is established between demotic, polemical pamphleteering and the scholarly, juridical and theological treatises produced in professional and academic circles, as well as the genres in between, in order to analyse the political thought of the movement in all its registers.
