Two centuries after his death, David Hume remains one of the most provocative and consequential thinkers in the Western philosophical tradition, and David Hume: Bicentenary Papers brings together a remarkable collection of scholarly essays that honour his enduring intellectual legacy. Assembled to mark the two-hundredth anniversary of Hume's passing, this anthology gathers contributions from leading philosophers and historians who scrutinise the full breadth of his thought — from his radical empiricism and scepticism to his groundbreaking work in ethics, politics, and the philosophy of religion. Edited by G. P. Morice and published by the University of Texas Press, this volume presents a rigorous and multifaceted portrait of a philosopher whose ideas continue to challenge, unsettle, and inspire. Each paper illuminates a different facet of Hume's corpus, collectively illustrating why his arguments retain their sharp relevance in contemporary philosophical discourse. For students, scholars, and dedicated readers of the history of ideas, this collection is an indispensable companion — one that leaves the reader wondering just how far Hume's sceptical shadow truly reaches.
