The Philosophy of Jonathan Edwards

The book offers a comprehensive collection of Jonathan Edwards' significant early works, including "Of Being" and "The Mind," alongside nearly two hundred "Miscellanies" entries, many published for the first time. Townsend's introduction highlights Edwards' "radical idealism," tracing its roots to Christian Platonism and John Locke, challenging the common association with George Berkeley. This work serves as a vital source for understanding Edwards' philosophy and reflects the state of Edwards scholarship in the mid-twentieth century.
