This is the place to start if you're interested in the beginnings of Protestant natural law theory, the political thought of the Protestant reformation, or Philipp Melanchthon https://t.co/jUqLqdglmJ

@daniel_dsj2110 Ian Hunter's Rival Enlightenments. May well be surpassed by his The Kantian Religion, but I haven't read it all yet.

Exciting news from Cambridge, where a donation has funded a permanent lectureship (“Assistant Professorship”) in the History of Knowledge Pre-1400. The only explicit restriction is “not medicine”, but it is in the Dept of History and Philosophy of Science. https://t.co/gFSQV5PWxk

@matthenryyoung Looks more like antiquity and renaissance to me. Where are the great medieval scholastic political thinkers, like Peter Lombard, John of Salisbury, Aquinas, Ockham, Wycliffe, Giles of Rome, to name a few?

Very interesting article on Calvin's criticism of humanist ideas of counsel! Calvin seems to share with Melanchthon the importance of institutions and law in curbing rulers' passions. I wonder if C had read M's politics commentary with a similar role for ephors (and parlement)?

[Nick Barden @NBarden]

My article on Jean Calvin's 1532 Seneca Commentary is now published at @HEIjournal. If you're interested in #Calvin's political thought or the problem of counsel, take a look.

Link below, and DM me if you don't have access but would like to read it.

@DLNoorlander Is "good writing" a marking criterium or a learning objective? If not, then not much if at all, but give feedback and help improve future writing. If yes, balance it against other criteria/ILOs.

@MagnusBarsoe Tåbeligt. Folk tager jo også til/via lufthavnen af andre årsager. F.eks. til Dragør eller Sverige, for arbejde eller natur.

@evanodonphil That's all? I'm shocked!

Thrilling news! John Locke's journals have been digitised by the The Bodleian & The Clarendon Board. You can now read Locke's hand on yellowing paper on everything, from buying kid gloves to Alice George, who was 108 & only suffered rarely from the vapours

@Andreas_Vinther @magnusz Helt klart helt forkert.
