Oxford Studies in Early Modern Philosophy

Klappentext Oxford University Press is proud to announce an annual volume presenting a selection of the best new work in the history of philosophy. Oxford Studies in Early Modern Philosophy will focus 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 will also publish 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.
