Originally published in 1957, this classic work has guided generations of scholars through the arcane mysteries of medieval political theology. Throughout history, the notion of two bodies has permitted the postmortem continuity of monarch and monarchy, as epitomized by the statement, “The king is dead. Long live the king.” In The King’s Two Bodies, Ernst Kantorowicz traces the historical dilemma posed by the “King’s two bodies”—the body natural and the body politic—back to the Middle Ages.
The king’s natural body has physical attributes, suffers, and dies, as do all humans; however the king’s spiritual body transcends the earth and serves as a symbol of his office as majesty with the divine right to rule. Bringing together liturgical works, images, and polemical material, Kantorowicz demonstrates how early modern Western monarchies gradually began to develop a political theology. Featuring a new introduction and preface, The King’s Two Bodies is a subtle history of how commonwealths developed symbolic means for establishing their sovereignty and, with such means, began to establish early forms of the nation-state.

不过，尽管我们的时代发生了恐怖的事情，就是从大到小所有的国家，统统拜服于最诡异的教义，将政治神学发挥成真正的妄想症，在许多情况下直接挑战人类和政治理性的基本原则，但是，以此推断作者乃是试图考察某些现代政治性宗教的偶像是如何生成的，就属于臆测了。
It would go much too far, however, to assume that the author felt tempted to investigate the emergence of some of the idols of modern political religions merely on account of the horrifying experience of our own time in which whole nations , the largest and the smallest, fell prey to the weirdest dogmas and in which political theologisms became genuine obsessions defying in many cases the rudiments of human and political reason.

这是政治史、神学史、法律史还有思想史和经院哲学史的综合！很多地方其实都用了想象和推理。

2018 Shakespeare I. 比较着Richard II这一章装模作样写Queen's two bodies，感觉无地自容。

只一起读了前三章（没读完），思路比较纷繁，需要每读一段回头精简总结。
