Download or read book The Divine Feudal Law, Or, Covenants with Mankind, Represented written by Samuel Freiherr von Pufendorf and published by Natural Law and Enlightenment. This book was released on 2002 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because Pufendorf (1632-94) considered himself merely a lay theologian, his Jus feciale devinum sive de consensu et dissensu protestantium was not published until a year after his death, when he was already recognized as one of the founding fathers of the modern theory of natural law. It is a treatise on the reunification of Protestants in Europe, and companion to his treatise on religious toleration, also recently translated and published. Zurbuchen (Center for European Enlightenment Studies, Potsdam) is working on a comprehensive study of Pufendorf's ideas. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
