description: The writings of Joseph Butler, Anglican bishop and moral philosopher (1692-1752), place him in the highest rank of the eighteenth-century thinkers. His The Analogy of Religion, Natural and Revealed to the Couse and Constitution of Nature (1736) made of Butler, if Cardinal Newman is to be believed, "the greatest name in the Anglican Church," and his Fifteen Sermons Preached at the Rolls Chapel (1726) remains a living prescence to moral philosophers more than 240 years after his death. Also included is Studies Subsidiary to the Works of Bishop Butler by Gladstone.
