Zusammenfassung:
Why did David Hume feel so deeply about publishing 'The Dialouges Concerning Natural Religion' that he set aside funds in his will providing for its posthumous publication? Part of the answer is that it provided a literary, satirical work responding to his mean-spirited theological critics. Robert J. Fogelin provides a textual analysis that demonstrates the close relationship of 'The Dialogues' with his central philosophical writings and its centrality to his relationship with skepticism.
