Dissertation First: A General View Of The Progress Of Metaphysical, Ethical And Political Philosophy, Since The Revival Of Letters In Europe is a book written by Dugald Stewart in 1824. The book provides an overview of the progress made in the fields of metaphysical, ethical, and political philosophy since the Renaissance in Europe. In this dissertation, Stewart aims to give a comprehensive and detailed account of the development of these philosophical disciplines, starting from the ancient Greek philosophers to the contemporary philosophers of his time. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a particular period in the history of philosophy. The first chapter deals with the ancient Greek philosophers, including Plato and Aristotle, and their contributions to metaphysical and ethical philosophy. The second chapter covers the medieval period, including the works of Thomas Aquinas and other scholastic philosophers. The third chapter discusses the Renaissance and the emergence of humanism, which led to a renewed interest in classical philosophy. The fourth chapter covers the Enlightenment and the emergence of modern philosophy, including the works of Descartes, Spinoza, and Leibniz. The fifth chapter discusses the Scottish Enlightenment and the contributions of Scottish philosophers such as David Hume and Adam Smith. The final chapter covers the contemporary period, including the works of Immanuel Kant and other German philosophers.Overall, Dissertation First provides a comprehensive overview of the history of metaphysical, ethical, and political philosophy in Europe. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development of these philosophical disciplines and their impact on modern thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
