JAMES HARRINGTON'SCOMMONWEALTH

on Third Programme

View in Radio Times

by Christopher Hill
Harrington's friend and cousin Charles I ' would not endure to hear of a commonwealth,' but Cromwell said he was not afraid of ' a little paper shot,' and allowed the publication of Harrington's Oceana in 1656. Christopher Hill offers a reinterpretation of the political thought of this strange Republican.
