EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the half-title page of Adam Smith's seminal work, "The Theory of Moral Sentiments," published in Barcelona, Spain, in 1809. The title is accompanied by a portrait of its esteemed author, Adam Smith (1723-1790), who is recognized as the father of modern economics. Smith's groundbreaking book, a cornerstone of moral philosophy, delves into the nature of moral judgment and human emotions. The engraving, which is housed in the National Library of Catalonia (Biblioteca de Catalunya) in Spain, is a testament to the enduring influence of Smith's ideas. The title, "The Theory of Moral Sentiments," is displayed vertically on the right side, with "Adam Smith, Author" inscribed below. The colorful interior of the library provides a rich context for the image, emphasizing the importance of preserving and sharing knowledge. Smith's work, which was first published in 1759, was a significant departure from the prevailing moral theories of his time. He argued that moral judgments arise from the natural sympathy people feel for one another and the desire to be regarded favorably by others. This perspective challenged traditional moral theories that relied on divine commandments or rational self-interest. The Theory of Moral Sentiments remains a valuable contribution to the fields of philosophy, economics, and social sciences, and continues to inspire scholars and thinkers around the world. This evocative print serves as a reminder of the enduring relevance of Smith's insights into the human condition and the importance of empathy and moral sentiments in shaping our understanding of the world.
