How to Read Hobbes: Independent, Heretic, Political Scientist, Absolutist? A Review of Some Recent Works on Hobbes
What are historians for
This lecture addresses the general issue of the public function of academic history. In doing so, it considers the changing role of ‘history’ (both the practice and the form) from the Greeks to contemporary times, by exploring ways in which the muse Clio has been represented. It raises questions about the nature of public history in the U.K., by comparison with the so-called ‘History wars’ in North America and Australasia. It also engages with th…
Enlightened Erudition and the Politics of Reading in John Toland's Circle
The dense marginal annotation made by freethinker, John Toland (1670–1722) and republican author and parliamentarian, Sir Robert Molesworth (1656–1725) on a copy of Martin Martin's Western Islands (1716) is an exceptional source for exposing the relationship between elite sociability and intellectual conversation. As an example of collaborative serial reading the case-study is unique, and allows a number of historical enquiries. Contextualizing T…

John Toland, the druids, and the politics of Celtic scholarship
In dedicating his Specimen of the critical history of the Celtic religion and learning to Robert, Lord Molesworth, John Toland carefully outlined his attitude to historical writing: the ‘fundamental law of a historian is, daring to say whatever is true, and not daring to write any falsehood; neither being swayed by love nor hatred, nor gain’d by favour or interest: so he ought of course to be as a man of no time or country, of no sect or party: w…
Religion's Safe, with Priestcraft is the War: Augustan Anticlericalism and the Legacy of the English Revolution, 1660-1720
Anticlericalism has been neglected as an important element in England between 1660 and 1720. The nature and authority of the Church was inextricably linked to questions of the authority of the Crown and the state, and the rights of conscience

Cet article traite de la sincérité de la foi chrétienne publique de John Toland (1670-1722) et la confronte à ses croyances privées peu orthodoxes : le public et le privé dans la pensée de Toland sont séparés depuis trop longtemps. L'une des conséquences de cette reconstruction des idées religieuses de Toland sera de suggérer que ses opinions religieuses (publiques ou privées) étaient intimement liées à un programme politique.

Europe–s Enlightenment and national historiographies: Rethinking Religion and Revolution (1649–1789)
By exploring the “revisionist” accounts found in contemporary English and French historiography this paper intends to propose a way of rethinking traditional accounts of the relationship between religion, intellectual change, and “revolution” in Europe between 1649 and 1789. The premise of this discussion will be that English and French society shared many of the same political and cultural problems between the Reformation and the Revolution and …
