Sumario: | "Shaftesbury's Characteristics of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times ranges widely over ethics, aesthetics, religion, the arts (painting, literature, architecture, gardening), and ancient and modern history, and aims at nothing less than a new ideal of the gentleman. It is a text of fundamental importance for understanding the thought and culture of Enlightenment Europe. This volume presents a new edition of the text together with an introduction that examines its relationship to its historical period and to Shaftesbury's thought as a whole."--Jacket |
