内容説明
Philosophy, Dissent and Nonconformity forms part of the Doctrine and
Devotion trilogy. The book represents the first attempt to tell the story of
those who taught and wrote philosophy outside the Anglican-Oxbridge Academy.
Dr. Sell investigates the place given to philosophy in Dissenting
academies and Nonconformist colleges between 1689 and 1920. During this time
there were over one hundred such academies and colleges. The earliest
Dissenting academy tutors and Nonconformist college teachers lived dangerously
but they were seriously concerned with familiarising their students with all
fields of philosophy such as logic, metaphysics, ethics and theology. The more
philosophically talented eighteenth-century tutors produced books and articles
in the field. In particular, the treatment of moral philosophy has been a
prominent concern of a number of Dissenting philosophers.
The author examines the variety and range of philosophical interests
espoused by Dissenters and Nonconformists in turn. The beliefs and views held
by the philosophers are also examined in detail. This is both an important and
an engaging book on a fascinating subject, and will appeal to those interested
in nonconformist history and the history of philosophy in academic
institutions.
