A Letter Concerning Enthusiasm, To My Lord is a book written by Anthony Ashley Cooper, also known as the 3rd Earl of Shaftesbury. The book was first published in 1708 and is a letter addressed to his lordship. In this book, Shaftesbury discusses the concept of enthusiasm, which he defines as a form of religious or spiritual fervor that can sometimes lead to extremism and fanaticism. He argues that while enthusiasm can be a positive force, it can also be dangerous if not tempered by reason and moderation. Shaftesbury also explores the relationship between religion and reason, arguing that the two are not mutually exclusive and that a balance between the two is necessary for a healthy society. He criticizes those who rely solely on faith without questioning or examining their beliefs, and argues that reason is essential for understanding the world around us and making informed decisions. Overall, A Letter Concerning Enthusiasm, To My Lord is a thoughtful and thought-provoking exploration of the role of religion and reason in society, and a call for balance and moderation in all things.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
