Samuel Clarke was educated at Norwich, then entered Caius College, Cambridge in 1691. He studied Newton 's works and graduated in 1695 offering some of Newton 's work for his final examinations. He became a Fellow teaching at Cambridge until 1700. A chance meeting with Whiston , at that time chaplain to the Bishop of Norwich, in a Norwich coffee house led to their discussing Newton 's work. Whiston introduced Clarke to the Bishop of Norwich and, when Whiston went to Cambridge, Clarke became chaplain to the Bishop of Norwich. He held this post for 12 years. Clarke was considered the greatest metaphysician in England when Locke died in 1704. In 1706 Newton asked Clarke to translate his Opticks into Latin. Clarke attracted great controversy with his religious views having few supporters. However he became rector of Westminster, London and chaplain to Queen Anne. Further religious controversy followed and Clarke had to make various declarations of orthodox belief which seemed to be just enough to save him although it was noted that he had not recanted. After the death of Queen Anne, he became a close advisor to the Princess of Wales, who was to become Queen Caroline. He had weekly meetings with her and at her request he entered into dispute with

SAMUEL CLARKE excerpt from A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God (1705), part II. There has existed from eternity some one unchangeable and independent being. For since something must needs have been from eternity; as hath been already proved, and is granted on all hands; either there has always existed one unchangeable and independent Being, from which all other beings that are or ever were in the universe, have received their original; or else there has been an infinite succession of changeable and dependent beings, produced one from another in an endless progression, without any original cause at all: which latter supposition is so very absurd, that tho' all atheism must in its account of most things (as shall be shown hereafter) terminate in it, yet I think very few atheists ever were so weak as openly and directly to defend it. For it is plainly impossible and contradictory to itself. I shall not argue against it from the supposed impossibility of infinite succession, barely and absolutely considered in itself;

Clarke's Arianism became evident in his Scripture-Doctrine of the Trinity, 1712. He was nearly defrocked by Convocation until he recanted and agreed to remain silent on the question. The book aroused a controversy that lasted until his death. He had a handful of followers who defended him, and in fact, despite his promise, he entered the controversy anonymously a couple of times. No one doubts that he continued to hold Arian views.

    Samuel Clarke: A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God
    And Other Writings
    Samuel Clarke, Edited by Ezio Vailati
    Hardback In stock Samuel Clarke was by far the most gifted and influential Newtonian philosopher of his generation, and A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God, which constituted the 1704 Boyle Lectures, was one of the most important works of the first half of the eighteenth century, generating a great deal of controversy about the relation between space and God, the nature of divine necessary existence, the adequacy of the Cosmological Argument, agent causation, and the immateriality of the soul. Together with the other texts presented in this edition, it also provides the best introduction to Clarke’s philosophical views, which, in addition to their intrinsic interest, are historically important for the light they shed both on the philosophical positions within the Newtonian circle and on the exchange between Clarke and Leibniz, the most famous philosophical controversy of the eighteenth century.
    Contents
    A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God; 1. Several letters to the Reverend Dr Clarke; 2. The answer to a sixth letter; 3. The answer to a seventh letter; 4. Letters to Dr Clarke concerning liberty and necessity; 5. From Remarks Upon a Book; 6. From Clarke’s Sermons on Several Subjects; 7. From A Discourse concerning the Unchangeable Obligations of Natural Religion; 8. From Four Defences of a Letter to Mr Dodwell; 9. From a collection of papers which passed between the late learned Mr Leibniz and Dr Clarke.
