4.9/5 (17190 ratings)

Description:The Scottish Enlightenment is one of the great achievements of European culture. In philosophy, law, economics, politics, linguistics, and the physical sciences, Scots were key players in changing the way the world was viewed; and this explosion of activity still reverberates. It was the age of David Hume, Thomas Reid, and Adam Smith, of Adam Ferguson, James Hutton, and Sir John Sinclair. In his authoritative introduction, Alexander Broadie emphasises not only the diversity of intellectual discussion taking place in this small country located on the outer edge of Europe, but also the European dimension of this Scottish movement. After the general introduction, the anthology is arranged thematically—Human Nature, Ethics, Aesthetics, Religion, Economics, Social Theory and Politics, Law, Historiography, Language, and Science. These sections gather together well-known and lesser-known writings of the time. Much of the material has not been reprinted since the 18th century.
