The English Deists

More about the book

Focusing on the English deists, this book analyzes their works within the context of the early Enlightenment, a time characterized by diverse voices and a quest for self-definition. It challenges the notion that Romantic ideas of religious identity were present during this period, suggesting instead that such interpretations may impose anachronistic views on these writers. Through this lens, the book explores the complexities and nuances of their beliefs and contributions to religious thought.
