Jean Bodin Boeken
Jean Bodin was een Franse jurist en politiek filosoof, bekend om zijn soevereiniteitstheorie. Hij leefde in een tijd van intense religieuze conflicten en pleitte voor de sterke centrale autoriteit van een nationale monarchie als middel tegen interne onrust. Zijn geschriften onderzochten niet alleen de politieke filosofie, maar ook onderwerpen als demonologie. Bodin promootte ook het idee van religieuze tolerantie en co-existentie, zoals blijkt uit zijn latere, zij het ongepubliceerde, werk.
