Description

Discover the foundational roots of German philosophy with this first English translation of Alexander Baumgarten's Ethica Philosophica (1740).

Translated by John Hymers, this volume offers a rare look into the texts that shaped major thinkers. The book includes a detailed introduction to Baumgarten and his contributions to the field. Readers will find an explanation of the main themes within the Ethica Philosophica, providing context on its relationship to Christian Wolff and the work of G.F. Meier.
