Focusing on the patriarchalist theories of Sir Robert Filmer, this book explores his significant work, "Patriarcha," within the context of early modern political cultures. Utilizing previously unexplored primary sources, it offers a fresh perspective on Filmer, a thinker often misinterpreted. The study reexamines key issues in seventeenth-century political history, particularly the theory of patriarchalism, and sheds light on the role of patriotism in shaping English political discourse and identity.
