<p>The discovery of the unpublished <i>Idea philosophiae moralis</i>, written by James Dundas, first Lord Arniston, in 1679, is of great significance for Scottish intellectual history. Offering a unique synthesis of Reformed scholasticism and early modern philosophy, and engaging with thinkers such as Descartes, Hobbes and Seneca, the book reflects and highlights the richness of pre-Enlightenment Scottish philosophy. </p><p>Alexander Broadie and Giovanni Gellera situate this important book in relation both to the cultural context of the period and to James Dundas's biography. This prominent figure, in seventeenth-century Scottish public life, can now also be acknowledged as a philosopher. This edition presents the original Latin text and the English translation, along with scholarly apparatus of notes to the text and indexes.</p>
