Synopsis "La Fábula de las Abejas o los Vicios Privados Hacen la Prosperidad Pública (in Spanish)"

El pensamiento paradójico de Mandeville arranca con su alegoría de la vida de las abejas. Con descarnada ironía clásica, describe su visión de la naturaleza humana hasta plasmar una ética repulsiva que defiende el lujo, la envidia y el orgullo; justifica el egoísmo y condena la educación gratuita, la caridad y la frugalidad.
Bernard Mandeville

Bernard Mandeville (Rotterdam, November 15, 1670 – Hackney, January 21, 1733) was an influential Anglo-Dutch thinker: physician, satirist, moral philosopher, and proto-economist. He earned his medical degree in Leiden in 1691 and moved to England shortly thereafter, where he practiced as a specialist in nervous and digestive diseases, and became highly esteemed socially.

His most famous work, The Fable of the Bees: or, Private Vices, Public Benefits (1714), includes the original poem The Grumbling Hive (1705) accompanied by philosophical essays on moral virtue, benevolence, and hypotheses of society.
In this satire, Mandeville presents the paradox: private vices—such as luxury, vanity, or lust—generate social benefits by boosting consumption and employment, while austere virtue detracts from wealth and economic dynamism.

Todo muy bien. Ejemplar impecable. Pero en la pag. de venta tienen que aclarar que esta es una reedicion posterior a la original de FCE en tapa dura, de 1982. Esta es una edicion en rustica moderna. Resto, Ok. Sal. cord.
