SMITH AT 300: READING AND REREADING “THE CORRUPTION OF MORAL SENTIMENTS”
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 February 2023
Extract
“This disposition to admire, and almost to worship, the rich and the powerful, and to despise, or, at least, to neglect persons of poor and mean condition, though necessary both to establish and to maintain the distinction of ranks and the order of society, is, at the same time, the great and most universal cause of the corruption of our moral sentiments.”
