  • D'Alembert's dream and the utility of the humanities

    E J Hundert, Edward HundertARTICLECritical Review2003Referencias: 6

    D'Alembert's Preliminary Discourse, a once‐influential eighteenth‐century consideration of the utility of the humanities, is relevant to contemporary concerns about the declining importance of humanistic education. A sympathetic appraisal of d'Alembert's critique of humanistic erudition as largely useless can serve as a starting point for reconceiving of the humanities as studies that help train the professionals who administer the institutions o…

Mandeville dans le contexte litteraire des moralistes du XVIII e siecle, l'A. montre que la celebre maxime de Mandeville, soulevant le paradoxe des vices prives, benefices publics, est un modele exemplaire de la confrontation des penseurs des Lumieres a la nature paradoxale des societes modernes

  • The Enlightenment's Fable

    E J HundertBOOKEnlightenment's Fable1994

    The apprehension of society as an aggregation of self-interested individuals, connected only by bonds of envy, competition, and exploitation, is a dominant modern concern, but one first systematically articulated during the European Enlightenment. The Enlightenment's 'Fable' approaches this problem from the perspective of the challenge offered to inherited traditions of morality and social understanding by the Anglo-Dutch physician, satirist and …

    The crowns and scepters of stage emperors,” remarked Sancho, “were never known to be of pure gold; they are always of tinsel or tinplate.” “That is the truth,” said Don Quixote, “for it is only right that the accessories of a drama should be fictitious and not real, like the play itself. Speaking of that, Sancho, I would have you look kindly upon the art of the theater and, as a consequence, upon those who write the pieces and perform in them, fo…

    BERNARD MANDEVILLE (1670-1733) was a native of Rotterdam who studied at the University of Leyden, practiced medicine in England where he wrote satiric verse, and, during the last decade of his life, acquired the reputation of being a licentious philosopher-a detested name, an opponent lamented, yet ne'er to die.' The Fable of the Bees (1723 and 1729)2 was one of the most widely read and disputed books of its time, and its style, substance, and mo…

  • Bernard Mandeville and the rhetoric of social science

    Open AccessE J HundertARTICLEJournal of the History of the…1986

    Mandeville's account of the place of rhetoric in the formation of society and of the concepts employed to comprehend it clarifies a number of his arguments and helps to explain their historical significance. Mandeville's theory consolidated a conceptual revolution in the understanding of the relations between motives and acts and resituated the passions as a problem in social analysis. It provides a way of understanding how these arguments played…
