Description
This study examines the significant influence that Cambridge Platonism exerted on the European Enlightenment. Leclerc's translation of Cudworth's “True Intellectual System” ignited a European-wide debate concerning the concept of plastic nature. The study shows how the relationship between theology, philosophy, and the natural sciences was redefined at the beginning of the 18th century by discussions concerning the topos of “the world.”
