For those open to the possibility that philosophical thought can
improve life, David Hume's Essays: Moral, Political, and Literary
have something to say. In the first comprehensive study of the
Essays, Margaret Watkins engages closely with these neglected texts
and shows how they provide important insights into Hume's
perspective on the breadth and depth of human life, arguing that
the Essays reveal his continued commitment to philosophy as a
discipline that can promote both social and individual progress.
Addressing topics such as politics, war, slavery, the priesthood,
the development of industry, aesthetics, emotional disorders,
egoism, friendship, sexuality, gender relations, and the nature of
philosophy itself, the volume examines Hume's purposes and aims
against the backdrop of the eighteenth century society in which he
lived. It will be of interest to scholars of modern thought in
philosophy, politics, history, and economics.
