About this book

Shaftesbury: Characteristics of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times (Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy) by Shaftesbury, Lord. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521578929.

Shaftesburys Characteristics of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times was published in 1711. It ranges widely over ethics, aesthetics, religion, the arts (painting, literature, architecture, gardening), and ancient and modern history, and aims at nothing less than a new ideal of the gentleman. Together with Lockes Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Addison and Steeles Spectator, it is a text of fundamental importance for understanding the thought and culture of Enlightenment Europe. This volume presents a new edition of the text together with an introduction, explanatory notes and a guide to further reading.
