Focusing on the life and writings of Thomas White, also known as Blacklo, this book delves into the intellectual contributions of the Blackloists, particularly their engagement with natural philosophy and the emerging science in early modern Britain. It examines their unique theological perspectives aimed at developing a philosophically sound Catholic theology. Additionally, the text investigates how these ideas influenced White's unconventional political beliefs, including his support for religious Independents and Cromwell's Protectorate, with a full text of his treatise included as an appendix.
