The Rule of Manhood: Tyranny, Gender, and Classical Republicanism in England, 1603 - 1660
In this episode of New Work in Intellectual History, Jamie Gianoutsos discusses her recent work The Rule of Manhood: Tyranny, Gender, and Classical Republicanism in England, 1603–1660 (CUP, 2020), which illustrates how stories of classical tyranny were used between 1603-1660. Drawing on gendered language, Gianoutsos discusses the continued relevance of gender in intellectual history and the study of republicanism.
