Algernon Sidney Poradie kníh
Algernon Sidney bol anglický republikánsky politický mysliteľ, ktorého dielo položilo základy západného myslenia. Vo svojej najznámejšej práci, Discourses Concerning Government, Sidney spochybnil teóriu božského práva kráľov a navrhol koncepty obmedzenej vlády a práva občanov zmeniť či zrušiť skorumpovanú vládu. Jeho myšlienky, ktoré silno ovplyvnili vznik Spojených štátov, boli označené za „učebnicu americkej revolúcie.“ Sidney bol za svoje názory popravený, ale jeho odkaz ako vlasteneckého hrdinu a mučeníka pretrval.
