It is intended in this thesis to examine the two concepts of liberty which are referred to as the "positive" and "negative" concepts, and to consider whether it is possible to make a connection between each of these concepts and a corresponding and distinct theory of human nature. These theories of human nature are the "notions" referred to in the sub-title of the thesis. It will be realised that in a work of this nature it is impossible to survey the entire range of philosophers who have, at one time or another, been interested in or referred to liberty.
