Reviews
"There is one book that says it all. An old book, nearly a classic. . . .This book, published in 1957, is titled The King's Two Bodies: A Study in Mediaeval Political Theology ." --Bernard-Henri Levy, New Republic, "Professor Ernst Kantorowicz has in this volume given us a monumental work of superb scholarship and profound learning, magnificently produced by Princeton University Press. Few, if any, contributions to the study of medieval thought comparable to this depth and width have been made for many years." --B. Chrimes, The Law Quarterly Review, There is one book that says it all. An old book, nearly a classic. . . .This book, published in 1957, is titled The King's Two Bodies: A Study in Mediaeval Political Theology . ---Bernard-Henri Levy, New Republic, "Professor Kantorowicz has written a great book, perhaps the most important work in the history of medieval political thought, surely the most spectacular, of the past several generations. Here, in superbly designed chapters based upon the best scholarship in every field even remotely concerned with the Middle Ages, is the development of the theory and symbolism of the early national states from the eleventh to the sixteenth centuries." ---P.
