Harvey G Townsend – författare

Originally published posthumously in 1955, Harvey G. Townsend's Philosophy of Jonathan Edwards reprinted some of Edwards' most important early compositions on natural philosophy, "e;Of Being"e; and "e;The Mind,"e; and collected nearly two hundred "e;Miscellanies"e; entries, some of them published here for the first time. In his introduction, Townsend points to Edwards' "e;radical idealism"e; that derived from Christian Platonism and John Locke rather than George Berkeley, as commonly thought. Townsend's work represents an important sourcebook for Edwards' writings, and his introduction presents a clear picture of mainstream Edwards scholarship at the middle of the twentieth century.
