Prima edizione
Hardcover with dust jacket. Condizione: Sehr gut. 1009 p. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ A good and clean copy. - Richard Cumberland (1632-1718) is "perhaps one of the great unsung heroes of the natural law tradition," notes editor Jon Parkin. A liberal Anglican theologian and bishop, a philosopher, and a student of science and medicine, who lived through both the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution of 1688, Cumberland was drawn to the use of natural law and natural rights theories as a means of combating religious conflict during the Restoration period. His most significant work, A Treatise of the Laws of Nature (originally, in Latin, De Legibus Naturae), appeared in 1672 as a refutation of the controversial rights theories ofThomas Hobbes. In the Treatise, Cumberland sought to reconcile Hobbesian self-interest with natural sociability, proposing a philosophy of enlightened self-interest with a distinctive theory of obligatory natural law. He argued that natural law could be revealed through a scientific study of nature, and he established benevolence as the single underlying natural law from which all others stem: "the common good of all is the supreme law." Liberty Fund publishes the first modern edition of A Treatise of the Laws ofNature, based on John Maxwell's English translation of 1727. The edition includes Maxwell's extensive notes and appendixes. It also provides, for the first time in English, manuscript additions by Cumberland and material from Barbeyrac's 1744 French edition and John Towers's edition of 1750. Jon Parkin is a lecturer in politics at the University of York, United Kingdom. Dr. Parkin is the author of Science, Religion, and Politics in Restoration England: Richard Cumberland's "De Legibus Naturae"and of a forthcoming book on Thomas Hobbes: Taming the Leviathan.

Indianapolis: Liberty Fund, [2005]. xx, 1009 pp. Translated, with Introduction and Appendix, by John Maxwell (1727). Edited and with a Foreward by Jon Parkin. Reprinted The Legal Classics Library, 2013. Full calf, extra gilt, all edges gilt, marbled endpapers, ribbon marker. Bookplate on front pastedown, else fine. $65. * A Treatise of the Laws of Nature, originally titled De Legibus Naturae, first appeared in 1672 as a theoretical response to a range of issues that came together during the late 1660s. It conveyed a conviction that science might offer an effective means of demonstrating both the contents and the obligatory force of the law of nature. At a time when Hobbes's work appeared to suggest that the application of science undermined rather than supported the idea of obligatory natural law, Cumberland's De Legibus Naturae provided a scientific explanation of the natural necessity of altruism.

Prima edizione
First complete edition in English, originally published in Latin as De legibus naturae disquisitio philosophica in 1672, followed by an abridged translation by James Tyrrell in 1692. Cumberland's was the first full-length philosophical reply to Thomas Hobbes and a developed philosophical system in its own right. "All moral concepts, Cumberland tries to show, are definable in terms of the single natural law that men secure their own welfare by pursuing the common good. Most of what were to be the leading eighteenth-century moral theories can be found somewhere suggested, if nowhere fully worked out, in De Legibus Naturae" (Encyclopedia of Philosophy II, p. 278). Cumberland's work was effectively a Christian system of ethics independent of revelation and based on the evidence of sense and experience. Thus, the foundation of moral laws is not the will of the sovereign, as Hobbes was seen to have argued. The book had a major impact on future moral philosophers, especially the Earl of Shaftesbury. ESTC T97625. Quarto (250 x 193 mm). Contemporary sprinkled calf, spine ruled gilt in compartments, replacement red morocco label, gilt double-rule border to sides with central blind roll border, sprinkled edges. With 2 folding plates depicting the nervous system and the solar system. Engraved armorial bookplate of John Seale to front pastedown. Spine ends and corners restored, new red morocco spine label; a little light scuffing and surface abrasion to boards, last few leaves with marginal worm track, still a very good copy.

Richard Cumberland's classic of the Ethics branch of philosophy, largely seen as a response to Thomas Hobbes' "ethical egoism", which it was; beyond that, however, Cumberland's attitudes can be seen as a synthesis of prevailing royal, social, political and academic attitudes in Restoration England. Cumberland argued that a universal benevolence motivates each human being to altruism, in contradiction of Hobbesian exercise of free will. The second edition, 11 years after the 1672 first edition, and in solid condition. Very scarce. See all scans. L12n.
