Richard Price
'A Discourse On The Love Of Our Country' by Richard Price, delivered in 1789, explores themes of patriotism, liberty, and the principles of the British Revolution. This edition includes additions and an appendix that further elaborate on Price’s influential arguments about the moral obligations of citizens to their nation and the importance of upholding principles of justice and freedom. Price challenges readers to consider the true meaning of loving one’s country, advocating for a patriotism rooted in universal benevolence and respect for human rights rather than blind allegiance. This discourse remains relevant for understanding debates on nationalism, political reform, and the relationship between government and its citizens.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
