Re last mini-thread, reminded of the recent #hopwag episode (408) Constitutional Conventions: The Huguenots. https://historyofphilosophy.net/huguenots
The podcast mentions thr work Francogallia by François Hotman. It was translated into English by #RobertMolesworth. His preface was later published separately as "The Principles of a True Whig" which outlined his commitment to the "Gothic Constitution" which guaranteed liberty and ruled out absolutism.
