What is Routledge History of Philosophy Volume V : British Empiricism and the Enlightenment about?

<p>European philosophy from the late seventeenth century through most of the eighteenth is broadly conceived as 'the Enlightenment', the period of empirical reaction to the great seventeenth century Rationalists.<br>This volume begins with Herbert of Cherbury and the Cambridge Platonists and with Newton and the early English Enlightenment. Locke is a key figure in late chapters, as a result of his importance both in the development of British and Irish philosophy and because of his seminal influence in the Enlightenment as a whole. <b>British Philosophy and the Age of Enlightenment</b> includes discussion of Scottish Enlightenment and its influence on the German <b>Aufklarung</b>, and consequently on Kant. French thought, which in turn affected the late radical Enlightenment, especially Bentham, is also considered here.<br>This survey brings together clear, authoritative chapters from leading experts and provides a scholarly introduction to this period in the history of philosophy. It includes a glossary of technical terms and a chronological table of important political, philosophical, scientific and other cultural events.</p>
