This work presents the basic arguments and fundamental themes of the political and moral thought of the seventeenth-century philosopher, Samuel Pufendorf--one of the most widely read natural lawyers of the pre-Kantian era. Selections from the texts of Pufendorf''s two major works, Elements of Universal Jurisprudence and The Law of Nature and of Nations, have been brought together to make Pufendorf''s moral and political thought more accessible. The selections included have received a new English translation, the first for both works in roughly sixty years. The editor, a political scientist, and the translator, a philosopher, have developed a volume that is comprehensive and representative of Pufendorf''s thought without being repetitive, fragmented, or obscure.

Samuel Pufendorf’s The Present State of Germany was first published in 1667 (under the pseudonym Severinus de Monzambano) and immediately became one of the most notorious works in Europe for the next half century. Its trenchant critique of previous theories of the Holy Roman Empire elicited both attacks and defenses, and it also anticipated many elements in Pufendorf’s subsequent writings on natural law, history, and religion.
Samuel Pufendorf (1632–1694) taught natural law and was court historian in both Germany and Sweden.
Michael J. Seidler is Professor of Philosophy at Western Kentucky University.

This is Volume 7 of Samuel Pufendorf. Gesammelte Werke, general editor, Wilhelm Schmidt-Biggemann (Akademie Verlag, 1994– ). It contains ten dissertations from Pufendorf's Dissertationes academicae selectiores (DAS, 1675) and four additional dissertations not included in that collection. Works in the 1675 edition are compared with those in subsequent Sammelbände (1677, 1678, 1679, 1698), and with the separate first editions of each essay. Also included are two responses by Pufendorf to critics (Teuteburg, Scharschmidt) of Monzambano (1667) which have not previously been republished, and the prefaces to the 1675 and 1698 editions. This version of DAS contains – at the beginning – an Editor’s Introduction, a Note on the Text, five Tables comparing previous individual and collective editions (also listing respondents, dedicees, and others), and Synopses (in English) of all eighteen works included. At the end there are a complete Citation Index, a listing of Sources & Editions used, an appendix containing so-called Peritexts (dedications and laudations accompanying the separate, first editions), a Bibliography, biographical sketches (Identifications) of important personages; and both Person- and Subject- Indices. The individual Latin essays are accompanied by Footnotes devoted to variants and other textual matters, and by Endnotes (after each work) providing source information and explicating content.
