"A Colloquy On The Utilitarian Theory Of Morals" examines and critiques the presentation of utilitarianism in W.E.H. Lecky's monumental "History of European Morals from Augustus to Charlemagne." Henry Bleckly delves into Lecky's interpretation of utilitarian ethics, offering a detailed analysis and engaging in a philosophical dialogue with the historian's perspective. This work provides valuable insights into 19th-century ethical debates and the reception of utilitarian thought within historical scholarship. It remains relevant for scholars interested in the history of moral philosophy, the development of ethical theories, and the intellectual context of Victorian England. This title is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on moral philosophy and intellectual history.
