A prodigiously brilliant thinker who sharply challenged the beliefs
of his age, the political and social radical John Stuart Mill was
the most influential English-speaking philosopher of the nineteenth
century. Regarded as one of the sacred texts of liberalism, his
great work On Liberty argues lucidly that any democracy risks
becoming a 'tyranny of opinion' in which minority views are
suppressed if they do not conform with those of the majority.
Written in the same period as On Liberty, shortly after the death
of Mill's beloved wife and fellow-thinker Harriet, The Subjection
of Women stresses the importance of equality for the sexes.
Together, the works provide a fascinating testimony to the hopes
and anxieties of mid-Victorian England, and offer a compelling
consideration of what it truly means to be free.
