This volume explores the life and works of Auguste Comte from 1852 to 1857. Focusing on the Système de politique positive, Mary Pickering connects Comte's intellectual development to the history of the Second Empire and to tensions within the positivist movement. She also examines Comte's impact around the world.
This volume continues to explore the life and works of Auguste Comte during his so-called second career. It covers the period from the coup détat of Louis Napoleon in late 1851 to Comtes death in 1857. During these early years of the Second Empire, Comte became increasingly conservative and anxious to control his disciples. This study offers the first analysis of the tensions within his movement. Focusing on his second masterpiece, the Système de politique positive, and other important books, such as the Synthèse subjective, Mary Pickering not only sheds light on Comtes intellectual development but also traces the dissemination of positivism and the Religion of Humanity throughout many parts of the world.
