Natural Law Religion Rights: An Exploration of the Relationship Between Natural Law and Natural Rights, with Special Emphasis on the Teachings of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book discusses some of those ethical and political questions that puzzled several of the great minds of the twentieth century, such as Leo Strauss, Eric Voegelin, Jaques Maritain, and John Finnis: the question of natural law and its relationship to a teaching of individual freedom and rights. The main aim of the book is to enterpret anew the relationship between law and rights in Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, two important founders of modern rights doctrines. But in order to put their teachings into the right perspective, Syse portrays and discusses other models of law and rights, form Aristotle, through Thomas Aquinas, to John Duns Scotus and William of Ockham, with detours to the teachings of Plato, Cicero and Augustine. Throughout the discussion, the role of religion and revelation is given centre stage as a complex, yet fascinating picture of the relationship between natural law, religion, and rights emerges - one which is neither as simple nor as complicated as often imagined. 'Natural Law, Religion, and Rights' should be of interest both to students struggling with the meaning and contents of the natural law tradition, as well as to teachers and researchers working on the many-faceted problems of natural law and natural rights.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. St. Augustine's Press, 2006. Scholarly hardcover, 9-1/4 inches tall, xviii + 270 pages including bibliography and name and subject indexes, footnotes at bottom of pages, frontispiece illustration and one figure in text, no dust jacket but pictorial front cover. This copy in very good condition. Clean, unmarked text. No underlining, hi-liting or marginal notes. Firm binding, no loose pages. Book looks only lightly used. One possible flaw: the upper margins of a few pages have a slightly mottled appearance because of the weave in the paper. I think it's just an odd feature of the paper itself, not a stain. Text not affected. Nice copy of this title. More info on request. Seller Inventory # ABE-1792460176228
