This defence incorporates a rejection of the virtue of poverty and its conceptual replacement with a notion of impoverishment as undesirable. Hume identifies benefits from the pursuit of refinement at both the social and individual level. In the former it supplies an incentive that encourages industry and prosperity and in the former it vindicates the positive enjoyment that comes from material goods.","PeriodicalId":256622,"journal":{"name":"Essays on Hume, Smith and the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133348673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first examines the ‘Enlightenment commitment’ - the high value placed on science - and notes what can be gleaned of Smith’s own exposure to scientific thinking.

The third and longest Part discusses ‘Smith the scientist’ - outlining and illustrating by means of a couple of case-studies his commitment to causal explanation in the form of ‘soft determinism’. In the brief final Part the point made is that Smith does not divorce scientific ‘findings’ from moral significance.","PeriodicalId":256622,"journal":{"name":"Essays on Hume, Smith and the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121311299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In constructing that space they are partly reflecting some features of their own society but also intellectually they oppose three dominant strands of political thinking – rationalism, absolutism and republicanism. In their place the Scots articulate the idea of society as an interlocking set of institutions, behaviours and values that have themselves evolved. This combination of ‘sociology’ and ‘history’ allowed them to theorise about their contemporary society as distinctively ‘commercial’. In so doing they re-calibrated the place of the state and because this society was based on the interactions of socialised/ moralised free individuals, within a common established framework of law, it properly allowed a variety of institutions and value-systems to co-exist. Together these are key characteristics of civil society.","PeriodicalId":256622,"journal":{"name":"Essays on Hume, Smith and the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132713032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

‘But Art itself is Natural to Man’: Adam Ferguson and the Principle of Simultaneity “但艺术本身对人来说是自然的”:亚当·弗格森与同时性原则

Ferguson’s conception and typology of ‘arts’ is explored; more particularly it addresses his argument that all the arts are co-eval in human experience. Hence Ferguson claims of the basic 3-fold classification (made in the Principles) of commercial, political and ornamental arts that they are simultaneous. As he recognises this means it is mistake to prioritise, both chronologically and conceptually, those arts which attend to the exigencies of material life over those which serve the need for mental attainment and ornament.","PeriodicalId":256622,"journal":{"name":"Essays on Hume, Smith and the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"35 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114275337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hume’s ‘science of human nature’ permits him to label certain practices as depraved and to a discount the societal specificity of these practices.
