Professors and Public Ethics: Studies of Northern Moral Philosophers before the Civil War is a book written by Wilson Smith. The book provides an in-depth exploration of the moral philosophy of Northern American professors in the pre-Civil War era. It delves into the ethical theories and beliefs of prominent philosophers such as Jonathan Edwards, Timothy Dwight, and Francis Wayland.The book examines the role of these philosophers in shaping public ethics and moral values during a time of great social and political change in America. It analyzes their views on issues such as slavery, democracy, and individual rights, and how these views influenced the broader public discourse.Smith's book also explores the personal lives and experiences of these philosophers, shedding light on their motivations and the cultural and intellectual contexts in which they lived and worked. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of American history, philosophy, and ethics, as well as anyone interested in the intellectual and moral foundations of American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
