- More about Protestantism, Revolution and Scottish Political Thought: The European Context, 1637-1651
The Scottish Revolution (1637-1651) saw royalists and Covenanters debate King Charles I's authority using Scottish law, custom, and traditional views on kingship, while also engaging with European Protestant and Catholic intellectuals. This book explores how Scots adapted Lutheran, Calvinist, and Catholic political ideas to their debates, advancing languages of political legitimacy to solve a crisis about their national church's doctrines, ceremonies, and polity. It reinforces the importance of ecclesiology in the development of early modern political theory.

During the Scottish Revolution (1637-1651), royalists and Covenanters sought to challenge the authority of King Charles I by appealing to Scottish law, custom, and traditional views on kingship. However, they also engaged with the political ideas of Protestant and Catholic intellectuals from beyond the British Isles. This book explores the under-examined European context for Scottish political thought by analyzing how royalists and Covenanters adapted Lutheran, Calvinist, and Catholic political ideas to their own debates about church and state. By doing so, it argues that Scots advanced languages of political legitimacy to help resolve a crisis about the doctrines, ceremonies, and polity of their national church. This reinforces the importance of ecclesiology in the development of early modern political theory.
