This book recovers the Scottish Enlightenment's forgotten commentary on the French Revolution. It argues that this commentary is both a major intellectual discussion in its own right and essential to our understanding of how Enlightenment philosophy and the heritage of Adam Smith were reinterpreted for post-revolutionary Europe.
Introduction; Part I. The Burke-Paine Debate and Scotland's Science of Man: 1. The Burke-Paine debate and the Scottish Enlightenment; 2. The heritage of Hume and Smith: Scotland's science of man and politics; Part II. The 1790s: 3. Scotland's political debate; 4. James Mackintosh and Scottish philosophical history; 5. John Millar and the Scottish discussion on war, modern sociability and national sentiment; 6. Adam Ferguson on democracy and empire; Part III. 1802-15: 7. The French Revolution and the Edinburgh Review; 8. Commerce, war and empire; Conclusion.
