Abstract
Gustav III's royal coup in 1772 reestablished strong monarchy and ended the Age of Liberty (Frihetstiden) in Sweden. The event attracted much interest and commentary across Europe. The most detailed account of the episode and sophisticated analysis of its causes was Charles Francis Sheridan's now forgotten History of the Late Revolution in Sweden (1778). Sheridan used Enlightenment history and political science to argue that the reasons for the Swedish revolution went beyond its flawed constitution and could be traced to the Swedish national character and the circumstances of its orders, determined by its longue durée history, laws, geography, and climate.
1772年古斯塔夫三世的皇室政变重建了强大的君主制，结束了瑞典的自由时代。这一事件引起了整个欧洲的兴趣和评论。对这一事件最详细的描述和对其原因的复杂分析是查尔斯·弗朗西斯·谢里丹(Charles Francis Sheridan)的《瑞典晚期革命史》(1778)，现在这本书已经被遗忘了。谢里登用启蒙运动的历史和政治学来论证瑞典革命的原因超越了其有缺陷的宪法，可以追溯到瑞典的民族性格和其秩序的环境，这是由其漫长的历史、法律、地理和气候决定的。
期刊介绍：
Since its inception in 1940, the Journal of the History of Ideas has served as a medium for the publication of research in intellectual history that is of common interest to scholars and students in a wide range of fields. It is committed to encouraging diversity in regional coverage, chronological range, and methodological approaches. JHI defines intellectual history expansively and ecumenically, including the histories of philosophy, of literature and the arts, of the natural and social sciences, of religion, and of political thought. It also encourages scholarship at the intersections of cultural and intellectual history — for example, the history of the book and of visual culture.
