This book redresses this by showing how the spiritual senses became an essential tool for responding to early modern developments in philosophy, science, and religion for Smith. Through a close reading of the Select Discourses (1660) it is shown how Smith's theories of theological knowledge, method, and prophecy as well as his prescriptive account of Christian piety rely on his spiritual aesthetics. Smith offers a coherent system with intellectual intuition informing natural theology and revelation supplemented by spiritual perception via the imagination too. The central uniting feature of Smith's philosophical theology is thus 'spiritual sensation' broadly construed. The book closes with proposals for research on Smith's influence on the accounts of the spiritual senses developed by significant later figures including Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) and John Wesley (1703-1791).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Da Michaud\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9042934824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789042934825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peeters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.13lbs","brand":"Da Michaud","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50593367785727,"sku":"9789042934825","price":93.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reason-turned-into-sense-da-michaud-9789042934825","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
