Description

Swiss critic Johann Georg Sulzer's Dialogues on the Beauty of Nature (1750) and Reflections on Certain Topics of Natural History (1745) are exemplary specimens of eighteenth-century European theology, philosophy, natural history, and aesthetics.

Sulzer's contemporaries-notably Goethe-read him with attention.

Eric Miller's elegant translation comes with a vivid, informative, and strongly contextualizing introduction.

Sulzer's early works are a curio cabinet of the philosophical and theological arguments that exercised and enticed the intelligentsia of his period.

These topics and arguments have by no means forfeited pertinence today.
