Research Abstract

In this research project, I studied the formation of practical philosophy in early modern England, while analyzing the concept of political prudence of Sir William Temple and the Marquis of Halifax. This study revealed the following four points. (1)Temple rejected abstract political theory and groped for a way of moderate and wise government which makes experience and common sense the keynote. (2)The practical philosophy of Temple, who attached great importance to moderation and tolerance, was based on the period of his cultural formation. (3)In the learning theory and garden theory of Temple, close relevance with the concept of his political prudence can be grasped. (4)In the thought of Halifax, who acknowledged himself to be a trimmer, the same aristocratic concept of political prudence as Temple was richly contained.
