Key Texts
Classic Studies in the History of Ideas

Key Texts are facsimile paperback editions of books that have not been available for many years. The series gives particular emphasis to less popularized works of major thinkers in the history of ideas. We also feature more recent classic monographs that are now regarded as key textbooks for the humanities.
