Published in two volumes (1876 and 1881), this encyclopedic work championed rationalism and led the Victorian revolt against social orthodoxy. Tracing religious thought from 1688 to 1750, Stephen reviews the Deist controversy and the intuitional and utilitarian schools. His wide-angle lens creates a portrait of a turbulent century—including thinkers such as Locke, Hume, Rousseau, and Burke, among many more.
