Hardcover with dust jacket. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1009 p. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ A good and clean copy. - Richard Cumberland (1632-1718) is perhaps one of the great unsung heroes of the natural law tradition, notes editor Jon Parkin. A liberal Anglican theologian and bishop, a philosopher, and a student of science and med…icine, who lived through both the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution of 1688, Cumberland was drawn to the use of natural law and natural rights theories as a means of combating religious conflict during the Restoration period. His most significant work, A Treatise of the Laws of Nature (originally, in Latin, De Legibus Naturae), appeared in 1672 as a refutation of the controversial rights theories ofThomas Hobbes. In the Treatise, Cumberland sought to reconcile Hobbesian self-interest with natural sociability, proposing a philosophy of enlightened self-interest with a distinctive theory of obligatory natural law. He argued that natural law could be revealed through a scientific study of nature, and he established benevolence as the single underlying natural law from which all others stem: the common good of all is the supreme law. Liberty Fund publishes the first modern edition of A Treatise of the Laws ofNature, based on John Maxwells English translation of 1727. The edition includes Maxwells extensive notes and appendixes. It also provides, for the first time in English, manuscript additions by Cumberland and material from Barbeyracs 1744 French edition and John Towerss edition of 1750. Jon Parkin is a lecturer in politics at the University of York, United Kingdom. Dr. Parkin is the author of Science, Religion, and Politics in Restoration England: Richard Cumberlands De Legibus Naturaeand of a forthcoming book on Thomas Hobbes: Taming the Leviathan.
