A yellow label pasted on to top of spine. Two small stamps to title-page and free front end-paper. Library label to pasted down front free end-paper. As usual with various browning to leaves and plates. Pp. 12-20. [Entire volume: (2), 582 pp. + ten engraved plates.].‎

‎First Latin edition (and second overall printing) of a selection of Locke's responses to Edward Stillingfleet, Bishop of Worcester. These are not only an important source in understanding Locke's late and mature view on religion but are probably the most famous and indebt discussions related to his seminal work ""An Essay concerning Humane Understanding"" Locke engaged in. The topic is of special interest since: ""Religion and Christianity in particular is perhaps the most important influence on the shape of Locke's philosophy"". (SEP: John Locke). The debate was essentially about Locke's definition of substance in ""An Essay..."". Stillingfleet argued that Locke advocated against dualism (mind - body) and thereby opening a door to Unitarianism. Locke did not support this view he, however, did not clearly reject the notion of Unitarianism and Socinianism. The volume contains the following:1. Bernoulli, Jakob. Circinus proportionum nauticus scala loxodromica instructus. Pp. 91-3.2. Bernoulli, Johann. Cycloidis primariae segmenta innumera quadraturam recipienta. Pp. 316-20 + one engraved plate. 3. Bernoulli, Jakob. Quadratura zonarum cycloidalium demonstrata. Pp. 427-28.4. Bernoulli, Johann. Excerpta ex literis. Groningae 7 Augusti 1699 datis. Pp. 513-16.And many other papers by influential contemporary mathematicians, philosophers and historians.‎

‎A Collection of Several Pieces. Never before printed, or not Extant in his Works. Publish'd by the Author of Life of the evermemorable Mr. John Hales, &c. - [LOCKE'S MAIN WORK ON NATURAL PHILOSOPHY]‎

‎London, J. Bettenham, 1720. 8vo. Nice contemporary English Cambridge-style full calf binding with five raised bands and gilt title-label to spine. Neat minor repair to extremities. A bit of overall wear, but a nice and tight copy. Internally nice and clean with only some occasional soiling that is very light. Engraved title-vignette (36 - i.e. title-page + dedication), XXIV (i.e. ""The Character of Mr. Locke"" by Peter Coste), (2 - i.e. contents), 362, (18 - i.e. index), (4 - i.e. errata + advertisements) pp. + one plate (""The Solar System"").‎

‎First edition of this important collection of hitherto unpublished works by Locke, containing the first printing of his unique work on Natural philosophy ""The Elements of Natural Philosophy"" as well as first printings of other important works. Assisted by Anthony Collins, in 1720 the journalist Pierre Desmaizeaux brought out a new collection of Works and pieces by John Locke that had not previously been published. This collection, ""A Collection of Several Pieces"", came to play a great role in the Locke scholarship, not least in recent times, and not least because it contains the first printing of his ""Elements of Natural Philosophy""The ""Elements of Natural Philosophy"" constitutes Locke's main work in natural philosophy, and it is a work that pas puzzled Locke scholars and readers ever since its appearance. The work seems to need some further explanation"" at a firsthand glance it doesn't look very much like Locke - the greatest of the English philosophers who has so frequently been accused of not understanding the exact sciences and who even encouraged the youth not to learn these but to educate themselves in superficial and useful party-conversation. Thus, numerous attempts have been made to establish the influence that resulted in this educational work of natural science. The two dominating answers to the question of influence are now: Newton and Descartes. It now seems to be fairly commonly recognized that Newton, a personal friend of Locke, even contributed directly to the work. ""When Locke himself at the end of his life came to compose a treatise on natural philosophy for a pupil, we have reason to believe that he obtained the advice and help of the most brilliant scientist of the century, his close friend Isaac Newton. As we shall see, this unique educational work itself, ""The Elements of Natural Philosophy"", belies the myth of Locke the scientific smatterer."" (Axtell, Locke, Newton, and the Elements of Natural Philosophy, p. 244). However, Descartes influence also seems to be obvious"" ""The influence of the ""Principles"" (by Descartes) is also obvious in Locke's posthumously published ""Elements of Natural Philosophy"". There is a striking similarity in the order of exposition, although there are also considerable differences: Locke carefully eschewed Descartes' ""a priori"" metahpysics of nature... We find him rather emphasizing the essential role of experience. For example, Locke introduced Newtonian universal gravitation as follows:... Thus, according to Locke empirical support was necessary to establish the law of nature. Although the exposition looks quite similar to Descartes' ""Principles"", the ""Elements"" in fact contain several anti-Cartesian remarks in favour of the experimental philosophy."" (Aoki, Descartes and Locke on the Nature of Matter. In: Hutton and Schuurmann edt., Studies on Locke, p. 77).""Elements of Natural Philosophy"" was printed in no less than nine times during the 1th century and appeared in both Russian and French during the 18th century as well.The present ""Collection of several Pieces"" furthermore included a collection of letters from Locke to Anthony Collins, ""Remarks upon some of Mr. Norris's Books..."", ""Some Thoughts concerning Reading and Study for a Gentleman..."", and ""Rules of a society..."", all printed here for the first time, as well as an English translation of Coste's Eulogy (""The Character of Mr. Locke"", originally published in French in 1705), and reprints of ""The fundamental Constitutions of Carolina"" and ""A Letter from a person of Quality..."".""Remarks upon some of Mr. Norris's books..."" is the third of Locke's replies to Norris. ""Some thoughts concerning reading and study for a gentleman"" constitutes Locke's reply to Samuel Bold's question, on behalf of a parishioner, on how to create a course of reading and study. ""Rules of a Society"" constitutes the rules that Locke set up for a small group of friends who met once a week to discuss ""useful Knowledge"" and to promote ""Truth and Christian Charity"". Throughout his life Locke created several of these ""societies"", one of which led to his ""An Essay Concerning Human Understanding"", another one being ""The College"" in London after the Revolution.‎

‎First edition of this influential collection of Locke's posthumous works, in which we find the first printing of his highly important ""On the Conduct of Understanding"" (takes up the larger part of the volume, namely pp. (1) - 137), which he himself considered of the utmost importance. He had actually intended it to be the final and largest chapter of his ""Essay"", his seminal magnum opus which constitutes ""the first modern attempt to analyze [human knowledge]"" (PMM 164), but he did not completely finish it before his death (1704) and it thus didn't make it into the fourth edition of the ""Essay"", where Locke had planned to make it the greatest part and the concluding chapter. ""In 1697, Locke had written to Molyneux: ""I have lately got a little leisure to think of some additions to my book [the Essay], against the next edition, and within these few days have fallen upon a subject that I know not how far it will lead me. I have written several pages on it, but the matter, the farther I go, opens the more upon me, and I cannot yet get sight of any end of it. The title of the chapter will be Of the Conduct of the Understanding, which, if I shall pursue, as far as I imagine it will reach, and as it deserves, will, I conclude, make the largest chapter of my Essay."" [Locke #847, vol. 6:87] The new chapter was intended as a new final chapter to be added to the 4th edition (1700) [Locke #231], but Locke did not complete it. It was published in 1706 by King and Collins and has often been reprinted, independently, with other works by Locke or with Bacon's Essays."" (Attig, Locke Bibliography, Pennsylvania State University).Before his death, Locke had left instructions for his literary executors, Anthony Collins and Peter King. These instructions mentioned four works which did not see publication in his life-time, but which he felt deserved publication, among these were ""On the Conduct of the understanding,"" ""Seeing all things in God,"" and ""A Discourse on Miracles"", which were all published for the first time in the present collection of ""Posthumous Works"". As will be seen from the title-page, the collection also contained the unfinished ""Fourth letter for toleration"", some notes for a biography of the first Earl of Shaftesbury, and an English translation of ""Méthode nouvelle de dresser un recueil"". All these posthumous works were included in the collected edition of Locke's ""Works"" from 1714 as well as in all subsequent editions. The work of the greatest consequence included in this collection is no doubt ""Of the Conduct of Understanding"" which takes up more than a third of the volume. It became one of Locke's most read and popular works" during the 18th century alone, it was printed no less than 8 times and is now, as it were, considered a most important part of Locke's writings and an essential part of all collections of Locke's works. It was first published separately in 1754.‎

This work prepared by a close acquaintance of Locke provides a biographical sketch of Locke; anecdotes about the reception of Locke's report; appendices presenting an authentic description of the Moon; and the text of Locke's successful hoax perpetrated in the NEW YORK SUN in August 1835 which pretended to reveal a discovery that men and animals existed on the Moon. The revelations supposedly reprinted from the actually defunct EDINBURGH JOURNAL OF SCIENCE were so cleverly wrought that for a short time the report was given credence in scientific circles in the United States and Europe. The report was soon denounced as a hoax by the public press and Richard Adams Locke 1800-1871 a reporter for the SUN was identified as the perpetrator of the "ingenious astronomical hoax." Interest in the lunar discoveries increased the SUN'S circulation to more than nineteen thousand the largest of any daily of that time. According to William Gowans who reprinted the story in 1859 Locke's account created such public interest that the owners of the SUN published sixty thousand copies of it in pamphlet form. The pamphlet was published in September 1835 and every copy was sold in less than a month. Nevertheless the 1835 printings are rare and only a handful of copies survive.

‎Première édition en français de cet ouvrage peu commun traduit de langlais sur la base du travail de John Locke (1632-1704). Célèbre philosophe anglais, John Locke est une des figures importantes du rationalisme. Opposé à l'absolutisme en Angleterre et proche du comte de Shaftesbury Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1621-1683), il contribue aux théories naissantes du contrat social, de la loi et du droit naturel, ainsi quà létat de nature.

(Some foxing or stains). First edition in French of this unusual work translated from English and base on the work of John Locke (1632-1704). Famous English philosopher, John Locke is one of the important figures of rationalism. Opposed to absolutism in England and close to the Earl of Shaftesbury, Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1621-1683), he contributed to the emerging theories of social contract, law and natural law, and the state of nature. Much later, from the 19th century on, he was considered one of the precursors of liberalism. The first volume of the present work deals with: "History of Navigation, its beginning, its progress and discoveries until now" (translated from French). In this part, the author talks about the history of navigation as a whole going back to the first ships that undertook perilous crossings. The second volume focuses on: "History of Navigation, Commerce with the West Indies" (translated from French). In this part, John Locke deals mainly with the discovery of the West Indies by Christopher Columbus and the successive voyages that followed. Thus, the islands of Cuba, Curacao, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Grenada and St. Vincent are discussed, as well as the activities of the Spanish, French, English and Dutch in these islands. Finally, pp. 177-316 include: "A Catalogue of the best Geographical Maps and Travel Books, and the character of their authors" (translated from French). Provenance: Jean-Claude Dezauche (1745-1824), engineer-geographer, engraver, publisher and map dealer. (ex-libris engraved on the back of the first plates). Beautiful and well preserved copy.‎

‎Abregé de l'essay de Monsieur Locke sur l'entendement humain‎

‎<p>Uppsala: Veuve du directeur Jean Edman 1792. Rare French edition printed in Uppsala of the abridgement of the Essay on Human Understanding by John Wynne the format in which Locke's thought was most effectively popularized at English universities and in Europe. "In the last decade of the seventeenth century English culture held a frustrated fascination for the continental Republic of Letters. Frustrated because few Europeans could approach English ideas in the English language. Gabriel Bonno1 has shown how Locke's continental readers were dependent initially upon reviews in French-language journals – Basnage de Beauval's Histoire des ouvrages des savans Bernard's Nouvelles de la r�publique des lettres and particularly Le Clerc's Biblioth�que universelle and its successors. Interested parties such as Limborch and Leibniz did not really come to grips with the Essay until it had been translated into French. This was accomplished in 1700 by Pierre Coste.Coste was like Le Clerc a French Protestant refugee in Holland. In 1695 he translated Locke's Some thoughts concerning education into French and sent the author a copy. Locke was pleased and Le Clerc encouraged the young man to begin translating the Essay. In 1697 Coste was invited to Locke's retreat at Oates as tutor to the Masham children and as Locke's assistant. The translation was completed under Locke's supervision and was published in June 1700 prefaced with Locke's recommendation. Coste remained at Oates until Locke's death in 1704. Thereafter in the midst of a busy literary career he continued his work on the Essay bringing out a revised edition in 1729." AttigThe first French edition of Wynne's abridged Essay came out in 1720 translated by Jean-Paul Bosset and with the first book given in Le Clerk's summary reprinted from his 1690 Bibliot�que universelle rather than Wynne's. It was published several times in London 1720 1741 1746 1751 as well as Geneva 1738 1741 1788 Dresden 1788 and finally Uppsala 1792.OCLC: Harvard UCLA York.Hollis record. 8vo 17 x 11 x pp. including title with half-page engraved portrait of Locke 284 4 pp. Bound in contemporary half calf and speckled boards gilt morocco title label and raised bands on spine spine and corners of covers worn old ownership inscription on front end pastedown light toning throughout very good.</p> Veuve du directeur Jean Edman hardcover‎
