Description

Former library book has a sticker on the spine. Paperback cover is in good condition with some normal wear. Book is slightly warped. Pages are clean and binding is secure.

This well-preserved copy of David Hume’s seminal work, “Dialogue Concerning Natural Religion,” offers a window into the Scottish Enlightenment and the philosophical debates that shaped Western thought. Published in 1779, three years after Hume’s death, this influential text presents a fictional dialogue between three characters – Demea, Philo, and Cleanthes – who represent different perspectives on the existence of God and the nature of religion.

Hume’s incisive critique of traditional arguments for God’s existence, coupled with his skepticism towards organized religion, sparked controversy and condemnation from the Church. Yet, his rigorous reasoning and elegant prose also earned him a place among the most influential thinkers of the Age of Reason. This edition, part of the HPC Classics series, provides an accessible entry point for readers and collectors alike to engage with Hume’s enduring philosophical legacy.
