The Libertine Led To Reflection By Calm Expostulation: A Method Recommended In A Farewell Address (1794) is a book written by John Duncan. The book is a recommendation for a method of communication that involves calm and rational discussion in order to bring about reflection and change in individuals who are behaving in a libertine manner. The book was written as a farewell address, possibly indicating that the author was leaving a position of authority or influence. The term libertine refers to someone who behaves in an unrestrained and immoral manner, often in regards to sexual behavior. The book suggests that instead of shaming or punishing individuals who behave in this manner, a more effective approach would be to calmly and rationally discuss the consequences of their actions and encourage them to reflect on their behavior. The book is written in a philosophical style and may be of interest to those studying ethics or moral philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
