Sir Charles Cowper , (26 April 1807 – 19 October 1875) was an Australian politician and the Premier of New South Wales on five occasions from 1856 to 1870. Cowper did useful work but does not rank among the more distinguished Australian politicians. Cowper's governments had a fairly coherent Liberal tendency, a trend which continued with the governments of Henry Parkes and later developed into the Free Trade Party. In 1852, Parkes referred in public to his "mild, affable and benignant character".

To deny freedom to pursue truth, beauty, and "benignant love" is to undermine every profound human venture, including science, morality, and philosophy. Personalistic idealists Borden Parker Bowne and Edgar S. Brightman and realistic (in some senses of the term, though he remained influenced by neoplatonism) personal theist Saint Thomas Aquinas address a core issue, namely that of dependence upon an infinite personal God. Howison, in his book The Limits of Evolution and Other Essays Illustrating the Metaphysical Theory of Personal Idealism, created a democratic notion of personal idealism that extended all the way to God, who was no more the ultimate monarch but the ultimate democrat in eternal relation to other eternal persons. J. M. E. McTaggart's idealist atheism and Thomas Davidson's apeirotheism resemble Howisons personal idealism.

This did not hinder his religious practice, though it did win for him a bad reputation in certain religious circles. The deeply Christian Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote to his father the year of Voltaire's death, saying, "The arch- scoundrel Voltaire has finally kicked the bucket ..." Voltaire was later deemed to influence Edward Gibbon in claiming that Christianity was a contributor to the fall of the Roman Empire in his book The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire: > As Christianity advances, disasters befall the [Roman] empire—arts, science, > literature, decay—barbarism and all its revolting concomitants are made to > seem the consequences of its decisive triumph—and the unwary reader is > conducted, with matchless dexterity, to the desired conclusion—the > abominable Manicheism of Candide, and, in fact, of all the productions of > Voltaire's historic school—viz., "that instead of being a merciful, > ameliorating, and benignant visitation, the religion of Christians would > rather seem to be a scourge sent on man by the author of all evil." However, Voltaire also acknowledged the self-sacrifice of Christians.

The title of the work probably alludes to the Memoirs of Martinus Scriblerus, a work created by the group of 18th century writers known as the Scriblerus Club, and Crispin the patron saint of shoemakers. The poem includes a very critical portrayal of Woodhouse's former patron, Elizabeth Montagu, which is thought be the reason for it not being published in full during his lifetime. A description of Woodhouse in his final years at his bookshop was given in an edition of Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine from 1829: > tall, erect, venerable, almost patriarchal, in his appearance — in his > black-velvet cap, from beneath which his grey locks descended upon his > forehead, and on each side of his still fine face, — his long, black, loose > gown, — and his benignant air — issuing from his little parlour with a > stately step, as the tingling bell which hung over the shop door gave notice > of a customer, when it was opened. Woodhouse died in 1820, his death brought about by a collision with a carriage whilst crossing the road, and was buried near Marble Arch in London at the cemetery of St George's Chapel.
