Through an examination of Mandeville's anatomy of early eighteenth-century beliefs, practices and manners in terms of motivating passions, the book traces the development of his thought on human nature and the origin of sociability. By making honour and its roots in the desire for recognition the central thread of Mandeville's theory of society, Andrea Branchi offers a unified reading of his work and highlights his relevance as a thinker far beyond the moral problem of commercial societies, opening up new perspectives in Mandeville's studies"-- |cProvided by publisher. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web 600 10 Mandeville, Bernard, |d1670-1733 |xCriticism and interpretation. |=^A81949 650 0 Honor in literature. |=^A53579 650 0 Social values in literature. |=^A118541 651 0 England |xIntellectual life |y18th century. |=^A18760 655 0 Electronic books. |=^A491897 856 40 |zFull text available from Ebook Central - Academic Complete |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/eastcarolina/detail.action?docID=6820706 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJOYNER188 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hHSL77 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJMUSIC60 596 1 3 4 998 6300764
