1. Introduction -- 2. Political Moderation and Practical Conservatism -- 3. Liberal Education and Classical Republicanism -- 4. Historical Interpretation and Philosophical Intention -- 5. The Philosophical Intention and Legacy of Hobbes -- 6. Leo Strauss and Alexandre Kojeve on Tyranny and Theory -- 7. Michael Oakeshott and Alexandre Kojeve on Play and Practice -- 8. Leo Strauss and Socratism after Heidegger -- 9. Michael Oakeshott and Augustinianism after Hobbes -- 10. Conclusion.

This book compares the thought of Michael Oakeshott and Leo Strauss, bringing Oakeshott's desire for a renaissance of poetic individuality into dialogue with Strauss's recovery of the universality of philosophical enlightenment. Starting from the conventional understanding of these thinkers as important voices of twentieth-century conservatism, McIlwain traces their deeper and more radical commitments to the highpoints of human achievement and their shared concerns with the fate of traditional inheritances in modernity, the role and meaning of history, the intention and meaning of political philosophy, and the problem of politics and religion. The book culminates in an articulation of the positions of Oakeshott and Strauss as part of the quarrel of poetry and philosophy, revealing the ongoing implications of their thinking in terms of the profound spiritual and political questions raised by modern thinkers such as Hobbes, Hegel, Nietzsche and Heidegger and leading back to foundational figures of Western civilization including St. Augustine and Socrates.
