Free Expression and Coerced Choice: The Role of the Army and Lord Protector in Miltonic Freedom
Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Scholarly approaches to understanding freedom in Milton's prose tend to connect Milton's ideas to either liberalism or republicanism.

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Native to America, the pineapple—Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.—delighted the Europeans who came across it. The fruit was mentioned by the voyagers and missionaries who observed and tasted it in the Americas and, from the 1500s onwards, infused reports, chronicles and natural history treatises with colour and flavour.

Understanding and truth in Hannah Arendt: The critical reception of the Eichmann trial and the will
The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract This article highlights a shift in Hannah Arendt's intellectual development regarding the will during the 1960s, traced into the early 1970s when she focused on thinking, willing, and judging. I argue that this change was driven by reactions to her report on Adolf Eichmann's 1961 trial in Eichmann in Jerusalem (1963).
