Excerpt: ... nor would the Law of God be, as I have observed, the adequate rule of the Conscience, if any thing else should oblige in any other way than by its influence), yet they differ in themselves not only in species, by reason of the diversity of the matter, but in degree likewise, as to the power of obliging. Some of these are. constantly binding, and either receive their obligation from the power of another (such are Human Laws, the commands of Parents, Masters, and the like); or their obligation arises from the free choice of the will, as vows, oaths, contracts, promises, &c. Others oblige only by accident, and cursorily as it were, as the exigence of time, place, and other circumstances require. Of this nature is the law, or reason, of avoiding scandal or offence. 3. The method I propose requires that I should begin with the first class of these things, namely, with Human Laws. And what I have to say on the extent of their obligatory power may properly be reduced to these two questions, --First, Whether Human Laws oblige the Conscience? Secondly, How far they are obligatory! The determination of most of the particular cases will fall chiefly under the last inquiry, and, God willing, shall be explained in the course of these Prelections. At present I shall dwell only upon the first, namely, Whether Human Laws oblige the Conscience? The subject of this question will give us little trouble. The Lex of the Latins (whether it was called so from legendo, i. e. from choosing in an active sense, as Cicero supposed, because a lawgiver should make choice of what he judges most useful for the community; or, as others will have it, from legendo in a passive acceptation, because laws, as soon as they were made, were engraved in tables of brass, or...

Book Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England

Download or read book Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England written by Meg Lota Brown and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England examines the responses of John Donne and his contemporaries to post-Reformation debate about authority and interpretation. It argues that the legal and epistemological principles, as well as the narrative practices, of casuistry provided an important resource for those caught in the welter of conflicting laws and religions. The first two chapters explore the political, historical, and theological contexts of casuistry, locating Donne in debates about the limits of reason and the relativity of law and ethics. Chapter three addresses Donne's concern with problems of moral decision and action, of knowledge and definition, in five of his prose works. Chapter four examines ways in which his verse assimilates and wittily subverts casuists' responses to epistemological and linguistic uncertainty. The study is particularly useful for literary critics, intellectual historians, and theologians.

Book John Locke

  • Author : John Marshall
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1994-08-11
  • ISBN : 9780521466875
  • Pages : 514 pages

Download or read book John Locke written by John Marshall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-08-11 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a contextual account of the development of John Locke's political, religious, social and moral thought. It analyses many of Locke's unpublished manuscripts and relatively neglected works as well as the Two Treatises, the Letter Concerning Toleration and the Essay Concerning Human Understanding. Professor Marshall studies the development of Locke's political thought from absolutism to resistance, and provides significant revisions to current explanations of the immediate contexts and purposes of composition of the Two Treatises. He also sets out major accounts of Locke's moral, social and religious thought both as extremely important subjects in their own right and in order to challenge many scholars' interpretations of their influences on Locke's political thought.

Book The Voice of Conscience

Download or read book The Voice of Conscience written by Mika Ojakangas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Western thought, it has been persistently assumed that in moral and political matters, people should rely on the inner voice of conscience rather than on external authorities, laws, and regulations. This volume investigates this concept, examining the development of the Western politics of conscience, from Socrates to the present, and the formation of the Western ethico-political subject. The work opens with a discussion of the ambiguous role of conscience in politics, contesting the claim that it is the best defense against totalitarianism. It then look back at canonical authors, from the Church Fathers and Luther to Rousseau and Derrida, to show how the experience of conscience constitutes the foundation of Western ethics and politics. This unique work not only synthesizes philosophical and political insights, but also pays attention to political theology to provide a compelling and innovative argument that the experience of conscience has always been at the core of the political Western tradition. An engaging and accessible text, it will appeal to political theorists and philosophers as well as theologians and those interested in the critique of the Western civilization.
