A pathbreaking anthology

This anthology contains Berlin's overview, and his introduction to a whole group of Enlightentment thinkers. More than anyone else Berlin brought these thinkers into the realm of British and American historical and philosophical discourse. While admiring them Berlin does not buy the utopian vision of any one, and his critical insights are balanced and wise.
