Jefferson's writings on morality and the moral sense have typically been ignored by scholars. Why? His thoughts, never fleshed out fully in any formal work, are said to be unsystematic, inchoate, or confused. This volume argues that Jefferson was not confused and his moral thinking was systemic and consistent, not fluctuant.
