Excerpt from Hume It was by the desire and at the suggestion of my friend, the Editor of this Series, that I undertook to attempt to help posterity in the difficult business of knowing what to add to Hume's epitaph and I might, with justice, throw upon him the responsibility of my apparent pre emption in occupying a place among the men of letters, who are engaged with him, in their proper function of writing about English Men of Letters.

Excerpt from David Hume In the following pages I have attempted to compress into small compass an account of the life of one of the most illustrious Scotsmen of last century. Notwithstanding Hume's vast ability and many services, his name has hitherto awakened the dislike of the majority of his fellow-countrymen, because of his openly avowed scepticism concerning views reverently cherished by Christian men. At this date, however, we may claim to have reached the period when it is possible to survey the writings with more of the historic spirit, or at least, with that freedom from prejudice for which Hume pleads; with enlarged views as to liberty of thought, and with perhaps greater indifference to the disturbing influence of the opinions so characteristic of the Historian. The keen antagonism of the religious men of the time induced the country to regard Hume as an Infidel, a Philistine, and an Arch-Sceptic, a good man who had gone astray. Now, when the enmity against him has in great measure become traditional, it seems possible to place him in a truer light, to shew that he is not an Infidel, that he scorns even the name of Deist, and that the man who himself challenged the evidence for belief in miracles maintains Essays II., sec. x., p.

Excerpt from The Life of David Hume: Written by Himself My very slender fortune, however, being unsuit able to this plan of life, and my health being a little broken by my ardent application, Iwas tempted, or rather forced, to make a very feeble trial for enter ing into a more active scene of life. In 1734, I went to Bristol, with recommendations to eminent mer chants; but in a few months found that scene totally unsuitable to me. I went over to France with a view of prosecuting my studies in a country retreat; and there I laid that plan of life which I have steadily and successfully pursued. I resolved to make a very rigid frugality supply my deficiency of fortune, to maintain unimpaired my independency, and to regard every object as contemptible, except the improvement of my talents in literature. During my retreat in France, first at Rheims, but chiefly at La Fleche, in Anjou, I composed my Treatise of Human Nature. After passing three years very agreeably in that country, I came over to London, in 1737. In the end of 1738, I published my treatise, and immediately went down to my mother and my brother, who lived at his country-house, and was employing himself very judiciously and success fully in the improvement of his fortune.

Excerpt from Studies in the Philosophy of David Hume Hume's attitude at the end of his career: he confesses to belief in some form of theism, and yet he justifies his conviction by a naturalistic view of human life and knowl edge the cosmic aspect of which seems utterly incompatible with any religious belief. In April 1917 I presented to the Faculty of Princeton University a portion of these studies as a dissertation in candidacy for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The dissertation was en titled An Introductory Study of Hume's Dialogues concerning Natural Religion, and comprised Chapters XI, XII, and XIII of this book, together with the sections from Chapter II dealing with Cicero, Bayle, Francis Bacon, Berkeley, and Malebranche (pp. 31-57) which followed immediately after the discussion of Part One of the Dialogues (p.

Excerpt from Hume Selections David hume was born at Edinburgh, Scotland, in the year 1711, and grew to manhood at a time when British philosophers Were engaged in very active discussion of the nature of morals and religion. Deism was then to the fore, the View that there is a religion natural to all men and discoverable by their reason alone. A famous theory of morals, too, was under attack, because it ignored the spontaneous sympathies of mankind and made too much of the selfish calculation of reason. The opponents of all this rationalism were among the most capable men of letters in that century - the Earl of Shafteslbnry, Bishop Berkeley, Bishop Joseph Butler, and Francis Hutcheson. So Hume read their writings, for he was an eager student of contemporary literature. He was fired with an ambition for a fame like theirs in the world of learning and thus applied himself to the moral subjects of the day, the nature of man and of human morality and religion. It was to be expected, therefore, that he would submit the manuscript of his first book to Hutcheson, and afterwards hurry a copy of the printed work to Bishop Butler. He looked for approval as their follower. He was thus a legitimate heir of that line of British thought, with its characteristic tendency to stand fast by practical convictions and to beware of merely abstract reason.

Excerpt from An Account of the Life and Writings of David Hume, Esq. IN the biographical fketch, drawn up by Mr. Hume previous to his death, and inti tled MY own life, he has paffed over nu noticed two very important incidents. The firfi of thefe is the complaint prefented to the General Afi'embly of the Church of Scotland, againfi the metaphyfical writings of our au thor and Lord Kames; an occurrence which derives, additional importance from a late dif cuflion of a like nature before that venerable body. The other is the difpute between him and Roufl'eau, which it was the more necef fary to relate at confiderable length, as an opinion, unfavourable to Mr. Hume, prevailed very generally, and even fiill prevails, among the literati in foreign countries. A fentiment of delicacy feems to have refirained him from alluding to thefe tranfaetions, but fuch almotive cannot influence a firanger; and a fimilar omiflion in a Life of Mr. Hume, written by another perfon, would certainly render the work very imperfeel.
