Treatise Of Morals: And Selections From The Treatise Of The Passions is a book written by the Scottish philosopher David Hume in 1893. The book is divided into two parts. The first part, Treatise Of Morals, is a comprehensive exploration of moral philosophy. Hume argues that morality is not based on reason, but rather on sentiment and feeling. He believes that moral judgments are not objective, but rather subjective and depend on the individual's emotions and attitudes.The second part of the book, Selections From The Treatise Of The Passions, focuses on Hume's theory of the passions. Hume believes that the passions are the driving force behind human behavior, and that reason plays a secondary role in decision making. He argues that the passions are not inherently good or bad, but rather they can be either depending on how they are expressed.Overall, Treatise Of Morals: And Selections From The Treatise Of The Passions is a seminal work in the field of moral philosophy and a key text in the Scottish Enlightenment. It continues to be studied and debated by scholars and philosophers to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
