Clarke, Samuel

▪ English theologian and philosopher

born Oct. 11, 1675, Norwich, Norfolk, Eng.
died May 17, 1729, Leicestershire
 theologian, philosopher, and exponent of Newtonian physics, remembered for his influence on 18th-century English theology and philosophy.

      In 1698 Clarke became a chaplain to the bishop of Norwich and in 1706 to Queen Anne. In 1704–05 he gave two sets of lectures, published as A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God (1705) and A Discourse Concerning the Unchangeable Obligations of Natural Religion (1706). In the first set he attempted to prove the existence of God by a method “as near to Mathematical, as the nature of such a Discourse would allow.” In the second he argued that the principles of morality are as certain as the propositions of mathematics and thus can be known by reason unassisted by faith, an approach sometimes called ethical rationalism. The criticism of religion by David Hume resulted in part from his dissatisfaction with Clarke's effort to prove the existence of God. Clarke also spurred a vehement and prolonged controversy with his Scripture Doctrine of the Trinity (1712), which led many of his opponents to accuse him of Arianism, the belief that Christ is neither fully man nor fully God.

      Clarke was a friend and disciple of Isaac Newton (Newton, Sir Isaac) at the University of Cambridge and helped to spread Newton's views. In 1697 he made a Latin translation of the physicist Jacques Rohault's Traité de physique (1671; “Treatise on Physics”), adding numerous footnotes explaining Newton's improvements on Rohault's work. In 1706 he published a Latin translation of Newton's Opticks. A correspondence of 1715–16 between Clarke and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, important for its defense of the reality of space and time, was published in 1717 and in several later editions. Clarke's collected works were issued in four volumes in 1738–42.
