It ranges widely over ethics, aesthetics, religion, the arts (painting, literature, architecture, gardening), and ancient and modern history, and aims at nothing less than a new ideal of the gentleman. Together with Locke's Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Addison and Steele's Spectator, it is a text of fundamental importance for understanding the thought and culture of Enlightenment Europe. This volume, first published in 2000, presents an edition of the text together with an introduction, explanatory notes and a guide to further reading.Cambridge texts in the history of philosophy.PhilosophySocial aspectsEarly works to 1800PhilosophyPolitical aspectsEarly works to 1800EthicsEarly works to 1800Social ethicsEarly works to 1800PhilosophySocial aspectsPhilosophyPolitical aspectsEthicsSocial ethics192Shaftesbury Anthony Ashley CooperEarl of,1671-1713.249555Klein Lawrence Eliot1757439MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820960503321Characteristics of men, manners, opinions, times4195285UNINA
