Hardback. Condizione: New. Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion In Reference to Civil Society is a remarkable piece of literature on toleration that followed the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. It is exceptional because the doctrine of toleration is developed within the framework of modern natural law, a doctrine for which Pufendorf is well-known as one of the founding fathers. The 1687 book eloquently sets forth the new doctrine of separation of politics and religion. In response to the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by Louis XIV, Pufendorf contests the right of the sovereign to control the religion of his subjects: state and religion pursue wholly different ends. Features an introduction, selected bibliography, notes and index. Codice articolo LU-9780865973701

Condizione: Gut. XX, 158 Seiten / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion in Reference to Civil Society, which first appeared in 1687, was written in reaction to the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. With that measure, Louis XIV renounced the laws that had granted toleration to the Huguenots in France. Pufendorf denounces the revocation as an illegitimate and tyrannical act and instead advocates toleration. -- Born in Saxony in 1632, Pufendorf was renowned in Europe as one of the founding fathers of the modern theory of natural law. In fact, Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion can be understood as an application of his natural law theory to the domain of religion and church. Pufendorf argues here that, since religion is part of natural human freedom, it cannot be delegated to the sovereign. The end of civil society consists exclusively in the security of the citizens, while religion should be left to the individual. For that reason, respect for religious freedom is one of the duties of the sovereign. Interestingly, although Pufendorf supported the separation of politics and religion, he did not advocate unlimited religious liberty. Rather, he promoted toleration as a means of maintaining political stability or promoting economic prosperity. -- Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion is thus a principled, but moderate, defense of toleration. Appearing at the dawn of the Enlightenment, Pufendorf's ideas on natural law and toleration were highly influential in both Europe and the British Isles. As Simone Zurbuchen explains in the introduction, Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion is a major contribution to the history and literature of religious toleration.
