Item description from seller

Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Book in excellent unread/unused condition. Softcover. English. Pub Year 2006, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Volume Four, *British Philosophy and the Age of Enlightenment*, part of the Routledge History of Philosophy series, explores the period from the late seventeenth century to the end of the eighteenth century. This was an era characterised by a reaction against the ambitious metaphysical systems of the seventeenth-century rationalists, which saw a prominent rise of scepticism alongside the dissemination of empiricism. The volume begins with the early British Enlightenment philosophers, including Isaac Newton and John Locke, and continues through the significant contributions of David Hume, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Edmund Burke. It examines the Scottish Enlightenment and its impact on the German Aufklärung, ultimately influencing Immanuel Kant, as well as the interactions of French thought with the Radical Enlightenment.The contents of this volume encompass a range of topics and thinkers, such as the Cambridge Platonists, the British Moralists, and key figures like George Berkeley, Robert Boyle, and Thomas Hobbes. Further discussions detail the intricacies of the Scottish Enlightenment and its relationship with both the German and French Enlightenment movements. The works within highlight the evolving landscape of British philosophy during a transformative period that shaped modern thought.Edited by Stuart Brown, a Professor of Philosophy at the Open University, this volume draws upon the expertise of various contributors, including David Berman, Ian Harris, and Rosalind Hursthouse. Brown's extensive writings on seventeenth and eighteenth-century philosophy and his previous editorial work lend authority to the comprehensive overview presented in this collection. The text offers essential insights into the philosophical dialogues that characterised the Age of Enlightenment. (SP).…
