Thomas Hill Green (1836-82) was one of the most influential English
thinkers of his time, and he made significant contributions to the
development of political liberalism. Much of his career was spent
at Balliol College, Oxford: having begun as a student of Jowett, he
later acted effectively as his second-in-command at the college.
Interested for his whole career in social questions, Green
supported the temperance movement, the extension of the franchise,
and the admission of women to university education. He became
Whyte's professor of moral philosophy at Oxford in 1878, and his
lectures had a lasting influence on a generation of students. Much
of Volume 1, edited by Green's pupil R. L. Nettleship and published
in 1885, consists of Green's work on David Hume (1711-76). In his
essay, 'Introductions to Hume's Treatise of Human Nature'
(originally published in 1874), Green gives a detailed critique of
Hume's metaphysical thought.
