Produktbeschreibung
""Reflection on the Late Lord Bolingbroke's Letters on the Study and Use of History"" is a book written by John Leland and published in 1753. The book is a response to a series of letters written by Lord Bolingbroke, a prominent politician and philosopher of the time, in which he argued for the importance of studying history as a means of understanding the present and shaping the future.Leland's book is a critical examination of Bolingbroke's arguments, and seeks to provide a more nuanced understanding of the role of history in shaping human affairs. Leland argues that while history can be a valuable tool for understanding the past and present, it is not a reliable guide to the future, and that the lessons of history must be interpreted with caution.Throughout the book, Leland draws on a wide range of historical examples to illustrate his points, and engages with a number of other contemporary thinkers and writers on the subject of history. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of ideas, political philosophy, or the study of history more broadly.Especially As They Relate To Christianity, And The Holy Scriptures. To Which Are Added, Observations On Some Passages In Those Letters Concerning The Consequences Of The Late Revolutions, And The State Of Things Under The Present Establishment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
