(EDT); Zarka, Yves Charles (EDT), ISBN 0792345304, ISBN-13 9780792345305, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US In 14 English and French papers by scholars of the mid-17th century, upheavals in the natural sciences and philosophy of that period impacted by Descartes, Galileo, and England's Civil War are explored. While advocating the primacy of reason and individual conscience so pivotal to contemporary thought, the Cambridge Platonists harking back to the themes of classical Christian Platonism slighted the implication of moral relativism. Noteworthy is the inclusion of "On the Nature of Liberium Arbitrium " by Cambridge Platonist Ralph Cudworth, in French and English. Translations of the other eight French papers would have been desirable. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
