A Hymn To The Mob (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162648958)

A Hymn to the Mob is a political pamphlet written by the renowned English author, Daniel Defoe. The book was first published in 1715 and is considered to be one of Defoe's most controversial works. The book is a satirical poem that praises the virtues of the ""mob"" or the common people, who are often marginalized in society. Defoe argues that the mob has the power to overthrow tyrants and corrupt governments, and that they should be respected and given a voice in political affairs. The book was written during a time of political upheaval in England, and Defoe's views on democracy and the role of the common people were considered radical at the time. A Hymn to the Mob is a thought-provoking and insightful work that provides a unique perspective on the political and social issues of the time.By Dyet, Cortez, States, And Sanhedrins Of Men?
