Description
""Characteristics of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times"" is a philosophical treatise written by Anthony Ashley Cooper, the 3rd Earl of Shaftesbury, and first published in 1711. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the nature of man and his place in society, the second part examining the principles of morality and virtue, and the third part exploring the role of aesthetics and beauty in human life.In this edition, Volume 1, published in 1773, the first part of the treatise is presented. It begins with a discussion of the nature of man, asserting that humans have a natural inclination towards goodness and social cooperation. Shaftesbury argues that the proper functioning of society depends on individuals fulfilling their roles and responsibilities, and that this requires a sense of moral duty and a concern for the well-being of others.The book also explores the concept of manners, which Shaftesbury sees as the outward expression of inner virtues. He argues that manners are essential for social harmony and that they reflect the values and beliefs of a particular society. Additionally, Shaftesbury discusses the importance of opinions and beliefs, asserting that these shape our understanding of the world and influence our actions.Overall, ""Characteristics of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times"" is a thought-provoking exploration of human nature, morality, and the role of society in shaping individual behavior. It remains a significant work in the history of philosophy and continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.Contains A Letter Concerning Enthusiasm; Sensus Communis, An Essay On The Freedom Of Wit And Humor; Soliloquy, Or Advice To An Author.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
