This book employs perspectives from continental philosophy, intellectual history, and literary and cultural studies to breach the divide between early modernist and modernist thinkers. It turns to early modern humanism in order to challenge late 20th-century thought and present-day posthumanism. This book addresses contemporary concerns such as the moral responsibility of the artist, the place of religious beliefs in our secular societies, legal rights extended to nonhuman species, the sense of ‘normality’ applied to the human body, the politics of migration, individual political freedom and international terrorism. It demonstrates how early modern humanism can bring new perspectives to postmodern antihumanism and even invite us to envision a humanism of the future.

An academically respectable description and evaluation of secular humanism is available at last. The diversity within humanism receives full recognition in this book, as does the fact that not everything about humanism is bad from a Christian point of view. Indeed, the author continues, there are many emphases within humanism that are compatible with Christian beliefs, a thesis to which he devotes an entire chapter. Part 1 summarizes in turn eight prominent forms of humanism: Huxley's evolutionism, Skinner's behaviorism, Sartre's existentialism, Dewey's pragmatism, Marxism, Rand's egocentrism, Lamont's culturalism, and the coalitional form present in the humanist declaration and manifestoes. Emerging from these chapters are both the differences between humanists and the consensus that binds them together. It is this humanistic consensus, writes the author, that most radically conflicts with Christian beliefs and that is the number one problem in the United States today. After the chapter on the helpful emphases of secular humanism, part 2 details this movement's comparative inferiority, internal inconsistencies, religious inadequacies, and philosophical insufficiencies. The final chapter demonstrates that, while Christianity is consistent with the central principles of science, philosophy, epistemology, and ethics, humanism is not. There is no rational justification, the author concludes, for being a humanist.

"This book explores the seventeenth-century philosopher Spinoza's modernist humanism. There is little doubt that Spinoza was one of the principal founders of modernity, but his modernism is often thought to come at the expense of a humanism. Drawing attention to Spinoza's humanism, this book concentrates on politics, ethics, and psychology in order to understand Spinoza's conception of the human being, and why that conception endures into our own time with particular relevance. This introduction to Spinoza's thought proceeds in a reverse order from the usual treatment: rather than beginning with a consideration of Spinoza's metaphysics, the discussion culminates in an exploration of those concepts. In this way, this book is a deeper examination of what Spinoza himself thought, and allows the reader to consider more fully Spinoza's wider philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.

What is a humanist? After an introduction to the earliest ideas of, and terms for, humanism in the ancient world, noted humanist Nicolas Walter explores the history of humanism and its evolving definitions from the time of the original appearance and first meanings of "humanist" in the Italian Renaissance, concluding with a manifesto of modern humanism. Drawing on personal experience and information from more than 400 sources, this is the first full-length treatment of the subject.
