Description

Explore the complex legacy of Juan de Mariana (1535-1624) through this scholarly examination of Early Modern Spanish political thought. As a prominent Jesuit author, Mariana remains one of the most misunderstood figures in history. This work focuses on his influential treatise, De rege et regis institutione libri tres (1599), originally dedicated to Philip III of Spain to provide principles of statecraft for the young king. Readers will learn how Mariana's reputation shifted from a political advisor to a suspected regicide. Following the publication of his work, both Catholic and Calvinist politiques in France accused his doctrines of empowering individuals to kill legitimate monarchs. The book examines how his writings were blamed for the murder of Henry IV in 1610, leading to his work being burned by official order. This text provides necessary context for understanding the religious and political tensions within Catholic Christendom between 1300 and 1700.
