Treatise on Nature and Grace by Nicolas Malebranche (1638-1715),
first published in 1680, is one of the most celebrated and
controversial works of seventeenth-century philosophical theology.
This major text, last translated into English in 1695, is here made
available to a new generation of readers in an entirely new
translation, with a substantial scholarly introduction. The central
argument, that God governs the realms of nature and of grace by
simple, constant, and uniform `general wills', not through
`particular providence', had fundamental repercussions within the
contemporary debates on the nature of divine grace and of
salvation, contradicting the claims of the Calvinists and
Jansenists that God wills the individual salvation of an elected
few. Hailed as a work of genius by Bayle and Leibniz, the Treatise
was to have a profound and far-reaching influence on the
development of eighteenth-century thought through the theory of the
just and justifiable `general will', which re-emerged in secular
form in the work of Rousseau.
