Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ethical and Religious Theories of Bishop Butler This work is intended primarily for those who have already had some acquaintance with Butler's writings, but will also, it is hoped, prove interesting to the wider circle of general readers who have hitherto not attempted to fathom the original itself. As far as the author is aware, there is no other book which covers exactly the same ground as this attempts to do, in estimating Butler's value, both from the ethical and religious standpoints, and in suggesting a critique of main lines in more modern criticism. The present production will perhaps have justified its existence if it serves in some measure to realize this end.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ethical and Religious Theories of Bishop Butler In 1733 Butler had been appointed Clerk of the Closet to Queen Caroline, and began to take his part in that brilliant metaphysical society which she loved to gather round her. For a time her interest in Butler seemed to wane, for Secker, who in the same year had become Chaplain to the King, mentioned his friend a year or so afterward to tlie Queen, who said she thought he had been dead. She repeated this to Archbishop Blackbourne of York, who replied, No, Madame, he is not dead, but he is buried. 2 However this may be, the Queen became interested in Butler, and commanded his attendance, we are told, every evening from seven till nine. The Queen died the next year, 1737, and just be fore her death recommended Butler to her husband. George II. Accordingly, though rather reluctantly, appointed Butler to the Bishopric Of Bristol, a posi tion, complained Butler in a private letter to Wal pole, neither very suitable to the conditions of my fortune, nor to the Queen's recommendation with which I was honored.3 The Bishopric was in fact the poorest in England. However, an addition was made to his income in 1740 by bestowing on him the Deanery of St. Paul's. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Works of Bishop Butler written by Joseph Butler and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2006 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete works of Joseph Butler, newly edited, with an introduction, notes, glossary, and an analytic index. This edition of Bishop Joseph Butler's [1692-1752] complete works is the first newly edited version to appear in a century, and is the only one to include a single, analytic index to the whole works. The editor's introduction presents Butler's ethics and philosophy of religion as a single, comprehensive system of pastoral philosophy and surveys the vast influence Butler exerted, especially in the nineteenth century. Included here are all fifteen published sermons from Butler's tenure as Preacher at the Rolls Chapel, the only sermons in English routinely studied by secular ethicists to this day; six additional sermons on the great public institutions; his Charge to the Clergy at Durham, controversial in its day for its defense of external religion; his youthful letters sent anonymously to Samuel Clarke, and the complete text of his Analogy of Religion, an apologetic tour de force, including the famous introduction on probability as the guide to life, the analogical defense of immortality, free will and the moral order of nature, as well as his famous rebuttal of deism and his dissertations on virtue and on personal identify. Butler's work is among the monuments of classical Anglican theology. He is a major source for work in ethical theory and philosophy of religion, as well as for the background of Victorian literature. David E. White teaches philosophy at St. John Fisher College and is an officer in the New York State Philosophical Association.

This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using ordinary language and appealing to the acknowledged facts of experience, Bishop Butler presented a guidebook on how to live in pursuit of happiness and the benefit of all. This book introduces readers to Butler’s philosophy as a whole and to the primary texts in his own words. Butler was an advocate and consistently defended the Church of England and its associated morality and theology in all his works. He insisted on the necessity of having good reasons to support any belief or practice toward which one was attracted. Butler’s ideas are presented here as a good fit with the full range of theistic piety and with the varieties of ethical atheism. The imposition of dogma and the exposition of bias are discarded as distractive from the search for truth. The life, sources, works, and reception of Bishop Butler serve as a bridge, or navigational aid, joining the wisdom of the ancients, sacred and secular, with our experience as moderns and with our expectations for future generations. Since Butler insists on grounding his views in evidence and argumentation, his appeal extends well beyond the Anglican Communion. Butler’s clarity of expression and cogency of argumentation free him from the bias associated with philosophical and religious thought. His work remains critical of, and receptive to, a wide range of ways to carry on the business of living a human life without falling into the kind of error and distraction most likely to lead to misery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book mark the tercentenary of the birth of Bishop Joseph Butler, the leading Anglican theologian of the eighteenth century and also an important moral philosopher. They cover the full range of Butler's theological and philosophical writings - from his Christian apologetic against the deists to his discussion of the role of conscience in the moral agent - as well as setting them in their historical context and suggesting their relevance to contemporary religious and philosophical issues. At a time of renewed interest in Butler's thought, as well as in the theological positions he was opposing, it is timely and appropriate that these detailed studies of Butler's thought should now be made available.
