Description: Montesquieu by David W. Carrithers, Philip Stewart Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A vital resource for students of the Enlightenment. The volume provides English translations – the first in nearly all cases – of varied and insightful discourses, dissertations, and dialogues elaborating Montesquieus evolving thinking on a wide variety of topics, many of which will be new and crucial to readers of his more canonical works. Publisher Description A number of Montesquieus lesser-known discourses, dissertations and dialogues are made available to a wider audience, for the first time fully translated and annotated in English. The views they incorporate on politics, economics, science, and religion shed light on the overall development of his political and moral thought. They enable us better to understand not just Montesquieus importance as a political philosopher studying forms of government, but also his stature as a moral philosopher, seeking to remind us of our duties while injecting deeper moral concerns into politics and international relations. They reveal that Montesquieus vision for the future was remarkably clear: more science and less superstition; greater understanding of our moral duties; enhanced concern for justice, increased emphasis on moral principles in the conduct of domestic and international politics; toleration of conflicting religious viewpoints; commerce over war, and liberty over despotism as the proper goals for mankind.
