About this ebook
Early Modern Philosophy: An Anthology (1st Edition), edited by Lisa Shapiro and Marcy P. Lascano, covers metaphysics and epistemology alongside less traditional themes like virtue, equality, education, the passions, and love. Published by Broadview Press, this comprehensive 2021 collection spans nearly 1,000 pages and features writings from 43 philosophers. [1, 2]
Core Philosophical Themes
- Metaphysics: Ultimate reality, substance, mind-body dualism, God, and the material world.
- Epistemology: Limits of human knowledge, empiricism, rationalism, and justification.
- Virtue: Moral development, ethical living, and character building.
- The Passions and Love: Emotional psychology, desires, human affection, and motivation.
- Equality and Difference: Gender differences, social hierarchy, human rights, and inclusion.
- Education: Intellectual development, pedagogy, and training the mind. [1]
Featured Philosophers
The anthology balances canonical figures with historically marginalized voices:
- Canonical Thinkers: René Descartes, Baruch Spinoza, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, John Locke, George Berkeley, David Hume, and Immanuel Kant. [1]
- Women Philosophers: Margaret Cavendish, Anne Conway, Gabrielle Suchon, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and Émilie Du Châtelet. [1]
- Diverse and Diverse Perspectives: Anton Wilhelm Amo (an African-German philosopher), Lord Shaftesbury, Julien Offray de La Mettrie, and Denis Diderot. [1]
