Front Page  Titles (by Subject) Beauty and Virtue
Debate: Beauty and VirtueFrancis Hutcheson entered a controversy among moral philosophers over whether or not human nature was primarily "benevolent" or "selfish". The former position was taken by the Earl of Shaftesbury in Characteristicks of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times; the latter position by Bernard Mandeville in The Fable of the Bees which was provocatively subtitled "or Private Vices, Publick Benefits." Hutcheson took Shaftesbury’s side against Mandeville in this debate.
