The History of Western Philosophy of Religion, Volume 3: Early Modern Philosophy of Religion

The History of Western Philosophy of Religion, Volume 3: Early Modern Philosophy of Religion

Nick Trakakis
4/5 ( ratings)
The early modern period in philosophy – encompassing the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries – reflects a time of social and intellectual turmoil. The Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Counter-Reformation, and the birth of the Enlightenment all contributed to the re-evaluation of reason and faith. The revolution in science and in natural philosophy swept away two millennia of Aristotelian certainty in a human-centred universe. Covering some of the most important figures in the history of Western thought – notably Descartes, Locke, Hume and Kant – Early Modern Philosophy of Religion charts the philosophical understanding of religion at a time of intellectual and spiritual revolution. Early Modern Philosophy of Religion will be of interest to historians and philosophers of religion and anyone interested in this vital period in the history of ideas.
