In The Political Thought of Frederick Douglass, Nicholas Buccola provides an important and original argument about the ideas that animated this reformer-statesman. Beyond his role as an abolitionist, Buccola argues for the importance of understanding Douglass as a political thinker who provides deep insights into the immense challenge of achieving and maintaining the liberal promise of freedom. Douglass, Buccola contends, shows us that the language of rights must be coupled with a robust understanding of social responsibility in order for liberal ideals to be realized. Truly an original American thinker, this book highlights Douglass's rightful place among the great thinkers in the American liberal tradition"--Provided by publisher. 000438996 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438996 60010 $$aDouglass, Frederick,$$d1818-1895$$xPolitical and social views. 000438996 60010 $$aDouglass, Frederick,$$d1818-1895$$xPhilosophy. 000438996 650_0 $$aLiberty$$xPhilosophy. 000438996 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000438996 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBuccola, Nicholas.$$tPolitical thought of Frederick Douglass.$$dNew York : New York University Press, 2012$$z9780814787113$$w(DLC) 2011043494$$w(OCoLC)756592638 000438996 8520_ $$bacq 000438996 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000438996 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=865432$$zOnline Access 000438996 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438996$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438996 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438996 980__ $$aBIB 000438996 982__ $$aEbook 000438996 983__ $$aOnline
