Book Overview

""The Ethical Philosophy of Samuel Clarke"" is a book written by James Edward Lerossignol in 1892. The book delves into the philosophical ideas and theories of Samuel Clarke, an 18th-century British philosopher and theologian. Clarke was known for his contributions to the fields of ethics, metaphysics, and natural theology. In this book, Lerossignol explores Clarke's ethical philosophy, which is based on the idea that moral principles are grounded in the nature of God. Clarke believed that God is the ultimate source of all moral values and that humans have a duty to follow these values in order to live a virtuous life. Lerossignol examines Clarke's views on various ethical issues, such as the nature of virtue, the role of reason in moral decision-making, and the relationship between morality and religion. He also explores Clarke's arguments against the moral relativism of his time, which held that moral values were subjective and varied from person to person. Overall, ""The Ethical Philosophy of Samuel Clarke"" provides a comprehensive analysis of Clarke's ethical philosophy and its relevance to contemporary discussions of morality and ethics. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of philosophy, theology, and ethics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
