Description: The English Utilitarians by Leslie Stephen Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Leslie Stephen (1832–1904), the English author and literary critic, began researching what he later called his utilitarian bog in the late 1870s, though this three-volume examination of English utilitarianism was not published until 1900. Volume 2 examines James Mill (1773–1836) whose writings influenced the dissemination of utilitarianism. Publisher Description Leslie Stephen (1832–1904), author, literary critic, social commentator and the first editor of the Dictionary of National Biography, published his two-volume History of English Thought in the Eighteenth Century (also reissued in this series) in 1876. This led him to further investigation and study of utilitarianism, whose proponents believed that human action should be guided by the principle of ensuring the happiness of the greatest number of people. While working on many other projects, especially the Dictionary, and haunted by domestic tragedy in the sudden death of his second wife in 1895, Stephen struggled for two decades with this undertaking, calling it the utilitarian bog: the long-awaited three-volume work was finally published in 1900. Volume 2 examines the life and political background of James Mill (1773–1836) whose writings were influential in the dissemination of utilitarianism.
