Synopsis
The Works Of. Joseph Butler by Joseph Butler. This edition gathers Butler’s principal theological and philosophical writings, most notably The Analogy of Religion, Natural and Revealed, to the Constitution and Course of Nature, together with two brief dissertations on Personal Identity and the Nature of Virtue, a biography (The Life of Dr. Butler), and editor’s prefatory material and notes. The Analogy argues that religion is grounded in a natural order and a divine government, first establishing Natural Religion and then explaining Revealed Religion, including the credibility of Christianity, the possibility and interpretation of miracles and prophecies, and the role of a Mediator. Central to Butler’s scheme is the claim that virtue consists in the due regulation of our passions under conscience, and that moral government operates through rewards and punishments in this life and in a future one. The work also addresses objections to revelation, universality of creed, and the practical duties of Christian life, emphasizing discipline, habit, and benevolent action. This edition includes the Editor’s Preface, Butler’s Life, and notes to guide readers toward engaging with his original texts.
