Synopsis
A study of English deists that offers an analysis of less known figures such as Anthony Collins, Matthew Tindal, Thomas Chubb, and Thomas Morgan. It offers illustrates how a specific deist conception of God provided the link between deists' political and natural philosophy even in people who have been mistakenly labelled as godless., This is the first complete study of English deists as a group in several decades and it argues for a new interpretation of deism in the English Enlightenment. While there have been many recent studies of the deist John Toland, the writings of other contemporary deists have been forgotten. With extensive analysis of lesser known figures such as Anthony Collins, Matthew Tindal, Thomas Chub, and Thomas Morgan, in addition to unique insights into Toland, Deism in Enlightenment England offers a much broader assessment of what deism entailed in the eighteenth century. Readers will see how previous interpretations of English deists, which place these figures on an irreligious trajectory leading towards modernity, need to be revised. This book uses deists to address a number of topics and themes and theme in English history and will be of particular interest to scholars of Enlightenment history, history of science, theology and politics, and the early modern era., This is the first complete study of English deists as a group in several decades and it argues for a new interpretation of deism in the English Enlightenment., This is the first complete study of English deists as a group in several decades and it argues for a new interpretation of deism in the English Enlightenment.
