Leslie Stephen (1832–1904), the English author and literary critic, began researching what he later called his 'utilitarian bog' in the late 1870s, though this three-volume examination of English utilitarianism was not published until 1900. Volume 1 examines the philosophy's development, and its leading theorist, Jeremy Bentham (1774–1832).
