Viac o knihe

Exploring the tension between democracy and monarchism, this study delves into the American revolutionary era's literary and political landscape. Analyzing key texts like the Declaration of Independence and works by early American authors, Downes argues that the emerging democratic identity retained elements of absolute monarchy. Through discussions of events like the mock execution of George III and concepts such as the 'king's two bodies,' the book illuminates the complexities of early American political structures and their influence on democratic practices.
