Nicholas Phillipson examines the intellectual trajectory of David Hume, positioning him not merely as a foundational philosopher but as a preeminent historian of the eighteenth century. By situating Hume’s major works within the context of the Scottish Enlightenment, the text explores how his historical methodology informed his broader philosophical inquiries and shaped his legacy as a public intellectual.
