Platonism and Cartesianism in the Philosophy of Ralph Cudworth

Beschreibung

In recent years, when the arena of philosophical theology has been almost entirely occupied by the contending forces of existentialism and neoscholasticism, with logical empiricism as a somewhat cynical spectator, the Platonic element in Christian thought has tended either to be neglected as irrelevant or condemned as Christian only in name. In particular, that extremely interesting group of seventeenth-century thinkers who are known as the Cambridge Platonists, and of whom the subject of this book was perhaps the most distinguished member, have received little attention, though J.A. Passmore's study «Ralph Cudworth, An Interpretation» must be mentioned as an honourable exception.
