and All is
One." The
Great Chain of
Being in
Berkeley?s
Siris: (02 May 2006),
pp. 63-82.The
Eighteenth
century is
often
represented,
applying Tom
Paine's
phrase, as
"The Age of
Reason": an
age when
progressive
ideals
triumphed over
autocracy and
obscurantism,
and when
notions of
order and
balance shaped
consciousness
in every
sphere of
human
knowledge. Yet
the debates
which
surrounded the
development of
eighteenth-cen
tury thought
were always
open to
troubling
doubts. Was
nature itself
truly an
ordered
entity, as
Newton had
argued, or was
it a mass of
chaotic,
randomly
moving atoms,
as some
materialist
thinkers
believed? This
book explores
the tensions
and conflicts
in these
debates
through a
series of
interdisciplin
ary essays
from leading
international
scholars, each
challenging
the idea that
the eighteenth
century was an
age of order.

Bishop
Berkeley: An
Exercise in
Reenchantment: (01 October
2006)Costica
Bradatan
proposes a new
way of looking
at the
influential
18th-century
Anglo-Irish
empiricist
philosopher.
He approaches
Berkeley's
thought from
the standpoint
of its roots,
rather than
from how this
thought has
been viewed
since his
time. In
Bradatan's
portrait, we
can see two
Berkeleys,
quite distinct
from one
another. This
other Berkeley
read and wrote
alchemical
books,
designed
utopian
projects, and
searched for
"Happy
Islands" and
the "Earthly
Paradise." His
new attitude
toward the
material world
echoed the
dualistic
theology of
the Cathars.
The thinking
of the other
Bishop
Berkeley was
rooted in
Platonic,
mystical, and
sometimes
esoteric
traditions,
and he saw
philosophy as,
above all, a
kind of
salvation, to
be practiced
as a way of
life. What
Bradatan
uncovers is a
much richer,
true-to-life
Berkeley, a
more profound
and
spectacular
thinker. This
book will
interest
scholars
working in a
wide variety
of fields,
from
philosophy and
the history of
ideas to
comparative
literature,
utopian
studies,
religious and
medieval
studies, and
critical
theory.
