A man of energy and verve, he made important contributions to social and moral theory, political philosophy and to the study of history. Reared in the highlands of Scotland, he lived most of his life in the enlightenment world of Edinburgh, participating in the city's social clubs and in the broader public and intellectual life of his nation. Renowned for An Essay on the History of Civil Society (1767), he also wrote pamphlets on political issues, published works of moral and political philosophy, authored a multi-volume history of the Roman Republic and composed numerous manuscript essays. Distinguished by a moral and historical bent, his work is framed within a teleological outlook that upholds the importance of action and virtue in the emerging commercial society of the eighteenth century."--Publisher description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Ferguson, Adam,|d1723-1816|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n79065503|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 14 Ferguson, Adam,|d1723-1816. 600 14 Ferguson, Adam. 600 17 Ferguson, Adam,|d1723-1816.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/37570 600 17 Ferguson, Adam.|2swd 650 0 Philosophy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85100849 650 7 Criticism and interpretation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1198648 650 7 Philosophy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1060777 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 Heath, Eugene.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2008002452 776 08 |iPrint version:|aFerguson, Adam, 1723-1816.|sSelections. 2007.|tAdam Ferguson.|dExeter, UK ; Charlottesville, VA : Imprint Academic, ©2007|z9781845400569|w(DLC) 2007282391 |w(OCoLC)191023791 830 0 Library of Scottish philosophy.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/nr2004034426 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=494598|zOnline eBook.
