Читать книгу Philosophiae Moralis Institutio Compendiaria, with A Short Introduction to Moral Philosophy - Francis Hutcheson - Страница 9

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

My thanks are due in the first place to Knud Haakonssen, the general editor of this series, for the extremely valuable guidance and encouragement that he gave me at various stages in producing this edition of Hutcheson’s Institutio and its old translation, the Short Introduction. I am also indebted to James Moore for many discussions on Hutcheson’s views, and I have found especially helpful his notes and commentaries on the writings of Gershom Carmichael. I am grateful to my friend and colleague Giancarlo Giardina, of the Department of Classical and Medieval Philology at the University of Bologna, for discussing a few passages of Hutcheson’s Institutio.

Finally, I wish to express my special gratitude to Dan Kirklin, managing editor of the publishing department of Liberty Fund, for the very intelligent and superlatively kind assistance he gave me in revising the proofs of this rather complicated edition.
