Summary/Abstract: This text is a polemic with two sketches out of Tomasz Tulejski’s book of Od Hookera do Benthama. Eseje o angielskiej myśli ustrojowej (2018). The author does not agree with the characteristics and location of the two heroes of this book – Richard Hooker and James VI/I – on the English theological-political scene. In his analyzes, prof. Tulejski omits English Catholics. Thanks to this omission, he places Hooker and James VI/I on the conservative part of the English political and religious scene instead in the middle. Additionally, the author’s objection is about the evaluation of James VI/I’s absolutist theory on his relation to the English political tradition.
