John Clarke / John Jackson / Joseph Clarke
In 'A Farther Examination of Dr. Clarke’s Notions of Space,' John Jackson engages with the theories of Samuel Clarke, a prominent philosopher and theologian of the early 18th century. This book delves into complex metaphysical questions surrounding the nature of space and the possibility of eternal creation. Addressing the arguments put forth by John Clarke in defense of his brother Samuel, Jackson presents a detailed critique of Clarke’s views, situating the debate within the broader intellectual context of Newtonian physics and its theological implications.This work offers valuable insights into the philosophical and religious debates that shaped Enlightenment thought, exploring themes of divine omnipresence, the structure of the universe, and the relationship between reason and faith. Readers interested in the history of philosophy, theology, and the intellectual history of the 18th century will find Jackson’s examination a stimulating and thought-provoking read.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
