Bernard Mandeville or Bernard de Mandeville 1670 -1733 was an Anglo-Dutch philosopher political economist and satirist. Born in Rotterdam Netherlands he lived most of his life in England and used English for most of his published works. The book was primarily written as a political satire on the state of England in 1705 when the Tories were accusing John Churchill 1st Duke of Marlborough and the ministry of advocating the War of the Spanish Succession for personal reasons. In 1723 a later edition appeared including An Essay on Charity and Charity Schools and A Search into the Nature of Society. The former essay criticised the charity schools designed to educate the poor and in doing so instil virtue in them. Mandeville disagreed with the idea that education adds virtue because he did not believe that evil desires existed only in the poor but rather he saw the educated and wealthy as much more crafty. Mandeville also believed that educating the poor increased their desires for material things defeating the purpose of the school and making it more difficult to provide for them. Full Leather. Fair.
