Table Annexed To Article: Bentham’S 1789 Footnote To The Introduction To The Principles Of Morals And Legisation [Revised Edition, 1789], Peter Aschenbrenner

Peter J. Aschenbrenner

In the 1789 (revised edition) of Jeremy Bentham’s The Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation, Bentham appended a footnote of 4,089 words. First, Our Constitutional Logic leaves various identifiable exceptions to one side. Second, Bentham’s sentences may be taken in natural or semi-regimented style. All laws may be divided into three types: commands, prohibitions and permissions. Leaving to one side Bentham’s wheelbarrow of neologisms, ‘Bentham’s Sieve’ receives its due attention.
