The Eighteenth century is one of the most important periods in the
history of Western philosophy, witnessing philosophical,
scientific, and social and political change on a vast scale. In
spite of this, there are few single volume overviews of the
philosophy of the period as a whole. The Routledge Companion to
Eighteenth Century Philosophy is an authoritative survey and
assessment of this momentous period, covering major thinkers,
topics and movements in Eighteenth century philosophy. Beginning
with a substantial introduction by Aaron Garrett, the thirty-five
specially commissioned chapters by an outstanding team of
international contributors are organised into seven clear parts:
Context and Movements Metaphysics and Understanding Mind, Soul, and
Perception Morals and Aesthetics Politics and Society Philosophy in
relation to the Arts and Sciences Major Figures. Major topics and
themes are explored and discussed, ranging from materialism, free
will and personal identity; to the emotions, the social contract,
aesthetics, and the sciences, including mathematics and biology.
The final section examines in more detail three figures central to
the period: Hume, Rousseau and Kant. As such The Routledge
Companion to Eighteenth Century Philosophy is essential reading for
all students of the period, both in philosophy and related
disciplines such as politics, literature, history and religious
studies.
