Riassunto

Oxford University Press is proud to present the third volume in a new annual series, presenting a selection of the best current work in the history of philosophy.

Oxford Studies in Early Modern Philosophy focuses on the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries―-the extraordinary period of intellectual flourishing that begins, very roughly, with Descartes and his contemporaries and ends with Kant. It also publishes papers on thinkers or movements outside of that framework, provided they are important in illuminating early modern thought.

The articles in OSEMP will be of importance to specialists within the discipline, but the editors also intend that they should appeal to a larger audience of philosophers, intellectual historians, and others who are interested in the development of modern thought.
