About This Item

2021. The Legal Classics Library, 2021.. The Legal Classics Library, 2021. Paley, William. The Principles of Moral and Political Philosophy. Indianapolis: Liberty Fund, [2002]. ix, 481 pp. Reprinted The Legal Classics Library, 2021. Full calf, extra gilt, all edges gilt, marbled endpapers, ribbon marker. Bookplate on front pastedown, else fine. $65. * This classic work was first published in 1785, and was originally based on his Cambridge lectures of 1766-1776. It was designed for instructional purposes and was almost immediately adopted as a required text for all undergraduates at Cambridge. It was one of the most popular books in England and America in the early nineteenth century and its significance lies in the fact that it marks an important point at which eighteenth-century "whiggism" began to be transformed into nineteenth-century "liberalism." But the popularity of the book also reflected the fact that Paley expressed some of the leading scientific, theological, and ethical ideas of his time and place.
