The Complete Works and Select Correspondence of Henry Sidgwick (2d Edition)

"Henry Sidgwick is the greatest of the classical utilitarians, far superior to Bentham or Mill in the care with which he examines issues in moral philosophy. But The Methods of Ethics is a big book, and it used to be heavy to carry around. No longer - now I have not only The Methods, but Sidgwick's complete works literally at my fingertip - they are on my laptop, in an easily searchable form, and go with me, wherever I go. Thanks, Bart Schultz and InteLex!"

Database Language: English

Contents:  The complete published works of Henry Sidgwick, including both the 1st and 7th editions of The Methods of Ethics. Also includes Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir by Arthur Sidgwick and Eleanor Mildred Sidgwick, which draws extensively from Sidgwick's correspondence and journal. Also included is a substantial body of correspondence, much of it previously unpublished, supplied from various British collections. Bart Schultz, Lecturer at the University of Chicago, editor of Essays on Henry Sidgwick (Cambridge University Press: 1992), and author of the forthcoming book, Eye of the Universe: Henry Sidgwick and the Quest for Certainty, is the electronic editor. This is the first time Sidgwick's complete corpus has been published.

The second edition of the database makes available for the first time in its entirety, the matched correspondence between Sidgwick and his very dear friend, Henry Graham Dakyns. This material, in a severely edited form, served as the basis for Henry Sidgwick, A Memoir, assembled by Sidgwick's widow and brother, and it has consequently been heavily relied upon by every serious Sidgwick scholar of the twentieth century.
