London: printed for R. Faulder. 1785. 4to., (4) + vii + (1) + xxi + (1) + vi + 657 + (1)pp., including the half-title, contemporary dark green calf with ornately gilt borders, sometime neatly rebacked, with gilt lines and lettered. A very good copy with the mid-19th century armorial bookplate of S.F. Steele Perkins Esq. and the earlier signature of Shirley Perkins on title-page.> First edition. This was the first of Paley's four principal contributions to philosophical thought - it was followed by Horae Paulinae> (1790), A view of the evidences of Christianity> (1794), and Natural theology> (1802). Although not an original thinker, Paley was 'surely an independent one' [Professor Victor L. Nuovo in Dict. E.C.B. Philosophers>]. Tutored by Edmund Law at Cambridge in the 1760s, he was, like Law, a critical disciple of Locke's school. Paley's Principles,> however, addresses a broad range of subjects including property ownership, slavery (an 'odious institution'), the treatment of 'domestics and dependents' (not to be refused 'harmless pleasures' and not to be insulted by 'harsh, scornful, or opprobrious language'), marriage, adultery and divorce, the right of self-defence, civil liberty and crime and punishment. In 1785, William Paley was Archdeacon of Carlisle.
