‎Scarce first edition of the first Danish translation of Mill’s seminal “Utilitarianism”, translated by the great Georg Brandes. Mill’s “Utilitarianism” constitutes a classic within the field of moral and political thought and is considered ""the most influential philosophical articulation of a liberal humanistic morality that was produced in the nineteenth century."" (Encycl. Of Philosophy). Originally published as a series of three separate articles in 1861, it was collected and printed as a single work under the canonical title in 1863. This publication is now considered the classic exposition and defense of Utilitarianism in ethics, a revolution within moral philosophy. The work was translated into Danish by the immensely influential literary critic Georg Brandes, by many considered the greatest intellectual of his time. Brandes played a key role in introducing especially German and British thought to Scandinavia, most notably the works by such thinkers as Darwin and Nietzsche. He is also the first to translate Mill’s works and make them accessible to a Scandinavian readership. His translation of “Utilitarianism” appeared in 1872 and was responsible for spreading the utilitarian philosophy to a wider audience in the North. The idea of Utilitarianism became immensely influential in Scandinavia. It inspired, for instance, Haralds Høffdig (1843-1931) to formulate the welfare principle, contributing to the formation of the welfare state that the Scandinavian countries are so famous for.‎

‎Scarce first Danish edition of Mill's radical and enormously influential work on liberty, which ""remains his most widely read book. It represents the final stage in the growth of Utilitarian doctrine, and its central point is one which had escaped both Mill's father and Bentham."" (PMM 345).""On Liberty"" constitutes one of the most important documents of political liberalism. The ideas presented in this hugely influential work have remained the basis of much liberal political thought ever since its appearance, and the work has remained in print continuously ever since its initial publication. To this day, a copy of On Liberty has been passed to the president of the British Liberals, and then Liberal Democrats, as a symbol of office and succession from the party that Mill helped found. The work became etremely influential throughout all of Europe, and Mill's Utilitarian ideas also found great resonace in Scandinavia. In Denmark, great authorities such as Høffding and Brandes were deeply influenced by the ideas of Liberty and Utilitarianism. In ""On Liberty"" Mill famously supports the individual's sovereignty over himself and presents the basis for liberty. It is here that one of the most fundamental statements of liberal thought is presented for the first time, namely ""over himself, over his own body and mind, the individual is sovereign"". ""On Liberty"" constitutes a defense of the rights of the individual against the state, a justification of the freedom of the individual in opposition to what Mill calls the ""tyranny of the majority"". It is also in this work that the famous ""Harm principle"", or the principle of liberty, which stands at the very core of all liberal thought, is presented for the first time. ""In ""On Liberty"" (1859) Mill defended the importance of individual freedom of thought and action, arguing that the individual is the best judge of his or her own good and that society benefits from the experimentation that occurs in an atmosphere of liberty."" ("" International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences"". Ed. William A. Darity, Jr.. Vol. 8. 2nd ed., 2008. p 553).""Mill realized that the ""greatest good"" of the community is inseparable from the liberty of the individual. Hitherto, liberty had always been considered relative, in relation to tyranny or oppression: Mill extended tyranny to include a custom-ridden majority, and declared that ""the sole end for which mankind is justified in interfering with liberty of action is self-protection"". [...] His arguments for freedom of every kind through speech have never been improved on. He was the first to recognize the tendency of a democratically elected majority to tyrannize over a minority, and his warning against it has a contemporary ring: ""We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavouring to stifle is a false opinion"" and, if we were sure, stifling it would be an evil still""."" (PMM 345). ""Mill's son was to prove Britain's preeminent, or at least most famous, political philosopher of the nineteenth century, less for his writings on utilitarianism than for his System of Logic and his essay On Liberty, still today liberalism's chief manifesto."" (Robert Wokler, in: ""Europe 1789-1914: Encyclopedia of the Age of Industry and Empire"". Ed. John Merriman and Jay Winter. Vol. 5. 2006. p. 2393).‎

‎First edition of Mill work on religion. ""Mill was somewhat cagey on this subject, both in public discourse - he refused to answer questions about his religious beliefs while running for Parliament - and in his writings. In correspondence Mill said that he had never had a belief in God. He did write that there is enough evidence for a divine designer/creator in nature to 'afford a large balance of probability in favour of creation by intelligence', yet he added that it was possible that a recently proposed alternative explanation for this evidence might turn out to be a better one. He was adamant that the existence of evil in the world established that no being could exist who was both omnipotent and perfectly morally good. Mill had a tremendous amount of respect for the moral teachings of Jesus, which he saw as only one part of a complete morality, but he believed that these teachings had been perverted by modern Christianity' (Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century British Philosophers, Bristol, Thoemmes Press, 2002).‎
