Abstract
The leaf provides a glimpse into Bentham's working methods; of particular interest is the distinction made between "intellectual faculty" and "volitional faculty" as well as Bentham's understanding of the degrees of consequential criminal liability.
Description
Draft outline for Chapter Seven "On States of Mind" intended for the penal code section of Bentham's Pannomiom, the proposed universal legal code which Bentham never finished.
