無料で聴く

David Hume stands as a towering figure in Western philosophy, but his historical writings also played a crucial role in his life. His monumental work, The History of England from the Invasion of Julius Caesar to the Revolution of 1688, published between 1754 and 1764, became a bestseller, bringing him financial independence and acclaim. This six-volume series remains influential and continues to be published today. Often compared with Thomas Babington Macaulay, another of Englands eminent historians, Humes narrative ends where Macaulay’s begins. Volume 1F delves into the fascinating reigns of Charles II and James II, offering rich insights into a transformative period in English history.
