Leslie Stephen (1832 1904) was a writer, philosopher and literary critic whose work was published widely in the nineteenth century. As a young man Stephen was ordained deacon, but he later became agnostic and much of his work reflects his interest in challenging popular religion. This two-volume work, first published in 1876, is no exception: it focuses on the eighteenth-century deist controversy and its effects, as well as the reactions to what Stephen saw as a revolution in thought. Comprehensive and full of detailed analysis, this is an important work in the history of ideas. Volume 1...

An Agnostic's Apology: And Other Essays
ISBN: 9781108047555 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 394 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The term 'agnostic' was probably coined by T. H. Huxley during a speech to the Metaphysical Society in 1869. From the Greek 'agnostos', 'unknown', it was derived from St Paul's mention of an Athenian altar inscribed 'to the unknown god'. With these overtones of ancient philosophy, agnosticism became the tag of an emergent school of thought which posited that the existence of anything beyond the material and measurable should be considered unknowable. In this collection of seven essays, first published as one volume in 1893, Leslie Stephen (1832 1904) makes a study of the 'unknown'. Across the...

Hobbes
ISBN: 9781108047654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. At the age of eighty-four, Thomas Hobbes (1588 1679) wrote an autobiography in Latin elegaics. Unsurprisingly, it was not as widely read as his two great philosophical works, Leviathan and Behemoth, in which he laid out a set of sociopolitical theories that enraged many of the philosophers and moralists of Europe. In this comprehensive biography, first published in 1904, Sir Leslie Stephen (1832 1904) charts the character and changes of Hobbes' thinking, from the scholasticism of his early Oxford education, to his later devotion to geometry and deductive science. With an emphasis on personal...

The English Utilitarians
ISBN: 9780826488169 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 1264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. These three volumes - devoted to Jeremy Bentham, James Mill, and John Stuart Mill - represent a triumph of the contextual method rather than a pure contribution to the History of Philosophy. The Utilitarians, Stephen argues, were social reformers first and philosophers second. Volume One consists largely of a catalogue of the social evils that provided Bentham with his problem and his stimulus. He realized that the ruling classes did not always desire 'the greatest happiness of the greatest number', and this in turn propelled him towards political radicalism. Volume Two contains an...

Although James Fitzjames Stephen (1829 94) was a successful barrister, he also had a prolific journalistic and literary output throughout his legal career.

Stephen paints an affectionate portrait of this leading Victorian legal and literary figure. He begins...
