Philosophical Dialogue in the British Enlightenment by Michael Prince, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This book discusses the intersection between philosophy and literature during the British Enlightenment. Its primary focus is the work of moral philosophers during the first half of the eighteenth century, but its larger interest is in understanding how the writing of philosophical fictions relates to the rise of the novel, and the emergence of philosophical aesthetics. Novelists such as Fielding, Sterne, Johnson and Austen are placed in a philosophical context, and philosophers of the empiricist tradition in the context of English literary history. | Philosophical Dialogue in the British Enlightenment by Michael Prince, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
