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.

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.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bishop Butler, a Religious Philosopher for All Time: A Sketch of His Life With an Examination of the "Analogy" Sermons on moral subjects and the Analogy, like the important works of other men of great intellectual superiority and profound thought, can not be correctly appreciated, or, indeed, truly comprehended, unless they are looked at and approached from the right point of View. For the purpose of rendering some assistance in gaining the proper point of view, as it seems to the author, this examination of the Analogy has been written. In order to arrive at this end, regard must be paid to the history of the period in Which the author lived; not in its theological aspect exclusively, but in reference to all its important characteristics. An attempt has therefore been made to show the position that the Analogy holds, in reference to the scientific as well as to the theological opinions of the age in which it was written. Bishop Butler's career was overlapped by that of Sir Isaac Newton. He be longed to the generation that immediately followed that of Newton. At the time of Newton's death, in I 727.
