Philosophy of John Norris

Description:

"Best known today as one of the earliest critics of John Locke, John Norris (1657-1711) incorporated ideas of Augustine, Malebranche, Plato, the Cambridge Platonists, and the scholastics into an original synthesis that was highly influential on the philosophy and theology of his day. Offering detailed considerations of his writings on metaphysics, knowledge, faith, moral philosophy, as well as his controversy with Locke, W. J. Mander presents a much-needed study of this unjustly neglected thinker, and the different perspective he offers on this seminal period in philosophical history."--BOOK JACKET.
