'An Essay on Moral Agency' (1772) by Stephen West is a theological and philosophical defense of Jonathan Edwards’s compatibilist account of human freedom. Written in response to contemporary critics of Edwards’s Freedom of the Will, West argues that moral agency is compatible with divine determinism, maintaining that human responsibility depends on rational volition rather than metaphysical indeterminacy.
