Autoren-Porträt von Herbert Spencer
Herbert Spencer (1820-1903) was an eminent English philosopher, biologist, anthropologist, and a leading figure in the intellectual sphere of the Victorian era. In his oeuvre, 'The Complete Essays by Herbert Spencer (Vol. 1-3)' amalgamates the vast landscape of his thought, spanning from ethics to political theory. Spencer's profound contributions to sociology and what came to be known as social Darwinism are often underscored by his work on the theory of evolution, where he famously coined the term 'survival of the fittest.' A polymath, his intellectual ventures also extended into educational theory and psychology. Spencer's essays reflect his commitment to the principle of individualism and his staunch support for laissez-faire capitalism, which he saw as a natural extension of the evolutionary principles at work in human societies. An advocate for the scientific method, he applied it vigorously to the study of society and the individual. Though his influence has waxed and waned over the years, Spencer's works remain a cornerstone in the foundation of several academic disciplines. His literary style, characterized by a clarity of expression and logical structure, ensures that his complex ideas remain accessible to scholars and thinkers across various fields of study.
