Description

Explore the profound intellectual landscape of the mid-seventeenth century with this scholarly study from Springer. The Cambridge Platonists represented a unique revival of classical Christian Platonism, applying its principles to the complex fields of epistemology and metaphysics. This volume examines how these thinkers navigated a period of massive transition. It places their work alongside the revolutionary shifts in natural sciences and philosophy driven by figures like Galileo and Descartes. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how these philosophical ideas interacted with the intense religious and political turmoil of the English Civil War. By investigating the central aspects of their thought and the resulting political and religious implications, this book provides a comprehensive look at the relationship between philosophy and its historical environment. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of ideas and the evolution of modern thought.
