Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This biography delves into the life of Francis Hutcheson, an 18th-century moral philosopher whose influence on Scottish Enlightenment thought remains significant. The author traces Hutcheson's intellectual journey from his early years in Ireland, where he was influenced by the classics and the ideas of Cicero, to his professorship at the University of Glasgow. Hutcheson's work is examined in detail, highlighting his contributions to moral philosophy, particularly his emphasis on benevolence and sympathy as the foundations of ethical behavior. The author also explores Hutcheson's engagement with the intellectual debates of his time, including his correspondence with Samuel Clarke on the nature of virtue and his Auseinandersetzung with the orthodox Calvinist theology prevalent in Scotland. By contextualizing Hutcheson's thought within the broader intellectual and social currents of the Enlightenment, this book sheds light on the development of moral philosophy and its enduring legacy in shaping our understanding of human nature and ethical principles.
