Pengarang: Lycurgus A. Wilson

Lycurgus A. Wilson, a writer whose life dates and personal history remain relatively obscure, is nonetheless known in the realm of religious philosophy for his work “Outlines of Mormon Philosophy”, published in 1905. In this book, Wilson presents a systematic analysis of the philosophical underpinnings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, more commonly referred to as the Mormon Church. His treatise explores key doctrinal concepts and the rational foundations of Mormon thought, seeking to articulate a comprehensive framework that harmonizes religious belief with philosophical inquiry. Although not widely recognized in mainstream philosophical circles, Wilson”s effort to engage with deep religious questions from a scholarly perspective contributes to the niche academic discourse on Mormon theology and philosophy. His work is primarily of interest to scholars of Mormon studies and those exploring the intersections of faith and reason within this distinct American religious tradition. Due to the specialized nature of his work and the period during which it was written, Wilson”s influence is largely confined to historical studies in Mormon thought and religious philosophy.
