Description

"This collection of essays by leading eighteenth-century specialists considers the Enlightenment in its historical and rhetorical contexts. The collection presents eighteenth-century philosophy as a material practice of writing, publication, conversation and dissemination." "The essays analyse how Enlightenment philosophers viewed their own writing; how their institutional positions as teachers and writers influenced their understanding of human consciousness; and how their insights into the nature of philosophical writing constitute our own academic legacy."--Jacket.
