Lord Herbert of Cherbury was a flamboyant Stuart courtier, soldier, and diplomat, known for his duelling and extravagance but also for his great intellect. His life and writings offer a unique window into the aristocratic world and culture of the early seventeenth century and the outbreak and impact of the Thirty Years War and British Civil Wars.
