Kantorowicz – on the nature and scope of political theology.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond a biographical study,   Monsterrat Herrero investigates the theoretical themes that link these three   figures' key texts. Through close textual analysis, she traces how, in 1922, Schmitt outlined a   methodological idea that Peterson developed in almost all his writings from   1931 onwards, and which would shape the historical research of Kantorowicz   from 1946. This and other such instances reveal the overlooked conversation   at play between the three thinkers. And Herrero argues that the web of   influence does not stop there, as she claims that these early writings   nurtured a myriad of interpretations which have turned political theology   into the kaleidoscopic discipline it is today.    \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe dialogue that is revealed between   these three intellectuals – a legal theorist, a theologian and a medieval   historian – largely centres on issues where the political and the sacred intersect, in particular: political bodies,   acclamations, martyrs and the arcana. Probing Schmitt's, Peterson's and   Kantorowicz's   differing viewpoints, Herrero   further demonstrates the striking relevance of many of these debates to contemporary concerns, from   the relation between churches and states to political legitimation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn essential resource for all   those interested in political theology and the history of political ideas,   Herrero's book breaks new ground in more ways than one. It examines these   three prominent thinkers together for the first time, introduces Anglophone   readers to Peterson's largely untranslated work and constitutes a fundamental   step in tracing the unique genealogy of political theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMontserrat   Herrero \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of Political   Philosophy at the University of Navarra, Spain.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 February 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781350630109\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e208\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51936237486220,"sku":"9781350630109","price":103.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_0f686242-e2b6-4c6f-a1ab-f08f5bbd3647.jpg?v=1786016145","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781350630109","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
