Democritus Junior
The Art of Melancholy.
<p>Brown cloth binding with gilt title and date on the spine.</p><p>This book focuses on the art to 'The Anatomy of Melancholy' The Anatomy of Melancholy is a book by Robert Burton first published in 1621. On its surface the book is presented as a medical textbook in which Burton applies his vast and varied learning in the scholastic manner to the subject of melancholia which includes although it is not limited to what is now termed clinical depression. Although presented as a medical text it is as much a sui generis work of literature as it is a scientific or philosophical text and Burton addresses far more than his stated subject. In fact the Anatomy uses melancholy as the lens through which all human emotion and thought may be scrutinized and virtually the entire contents of a 17th-century library are marshalled into service of this goal. It is encyclopedic in its range and reference. In his satirical preface to the reader Burton's persona and pseudonym "Democritus Junior" explains "I write of melancholy by being busy to avoid melancholy." This is characteristic of the author's style which often supersedes the book's strengths as a medical text or historical document as its main source of appeal to admirers. Both satirical and serious in tone the Anatomy is "vitalized by Burton's pervading humour" and his digressive and inclusive style often verging on a stream of consciousness consistently informs and animates the text.</p> Thomas Tegg. hardcover

Fano Vincenzo
Le lettere immaginarie di Democrito alla figlia. Un invito alla filosofia
br. Quale è il ruolo della filosofia in una società pervasa dalla tecnologia? Che cosa fa oggi un filosofo in un mondo dominato dalle conoscenze scientifiche? Immaginiamo che Democrito torni fra noi e, ormai anziano e malato, racconti il suo pensiero alla figlia. Gli episodi della sua vita quotidiana di uomo del XXI secolo sarebbero allora occasioni di riflessione, in cui le scienze e la filosofia dialogano fecondandosi reciprocamente. Galileo, Darwin e Einstein hanno mostrato che viviamo alla periferia dell'universo ma, a differenza degli altri esseri viventi a noi noti, abbiamo la capacità di meditare sulla nostra posizione nel cosmo. Il neo-Democrito ci guiderà in questi pensieri.

FREETHOUGHT DARWINISM LAW "Democritus" pseud. Frederick Raymond Coulson and G. Astor Singer
Darwin on Trial at the Old Bailey with Judicial Scandals and Errors
London: The University Press Ltd 1898. First Edition. Octavo; burgundy cloth boards; 107pp. Cloth a shade sunned at spine else a tight straight Very Good copy. The two titles bound together as issued; second title has its own half-title but pagination is continuous. Includes Appendix "The English Press and the Prosecution." Two works the first a satirical play the second a scholarly essay attacking British censorship laws and the suppression of public speech. The University Press sometimes calling itself the "Watford University Press" was a project of Rowland de Villiers a freethought and free-speech activist and publisher of controversial literature who has been described by one historian as "a somewhat shady character at best" see Odin Dekkers J.M. Robertson. Lon:1998. Villiers was most famously the British publisher of Havelock Ellis's treatise on sexual inversion; he was arrested on obscenity charges in 1901 and died in police custody. "G. Astor Singer" appears to have been a Villiers pseudonym and we would not be entirely surprised if "Frederick Raymond Coulson" was an alias as well. The University Press, Ltd unknown books

Digital photos upon request. The Anatomy of Melancholy Full title The Anatomy of Melancholy What it is: With all the Kinds Causes Symptomes Prognostickes and Several Cures of it. In Three Maine Partitions with their several Sections Members and Subsections. Philosophically Historically Opened and Cut up. is a book written by Robert Burton which was first published 1621. The book is on its surface a medical textbook in which Burton applies his large and varied learning in the Scholastic manner to the subject of melancholia. Each section piles on ancient and mediæval medical authorities from Hippocrates Aristotle and Galen forward and adds to these ancient examples a great deal of Latin poetry. Burton defines his subject this way: Melancholy the subject of our present discourse is either in disposition or in habit. In disposition is that transitory Melancholy which goes and comes upon every small occasion of sorrow need sickness trouble fear grief passion or perturbation of the mind any manner of care discontent or thought which causes anguish dulness heaviness and vexation of spirit any ways opposite to pleasure mirth joy delight causing frowardness in us or a dislike. In which equivocal and improper sense we call him melancholy that is dull sad sour lumpish ill-disposed solitary any way moved or displeased. And from these melancholy dispositions no man living is free no Stoick none so wise none so happy none so patient so generous so godly so divine that can vindicate himself; so well-composed but more or less some time or other he feels the smart of it. Melancholy in this sense is the character of Mortality.This Melancholy of which we are to treat is a habit a serious ailment a settled humour as Aurelianus and others call it not errant but fixed: and as it was long increasing so now being pleasant or painful grown to a habit it will hardly be removed. Over the course of the book Burton draws from nearly every science of his day including psychology physiology astronomy astrology demonology meteorology and theology. In fact much of the book consists of quotations from various authorities and Burton fills the Anatomy with more or less pertinent references to the works of others. The Anatomy of Melancholy is a particularly lengthy book. The first edition printed as a single quarto volume was nearly 900 pages long and subsequent editions only added to that total. The text is partitioned into three major sections plus an introduction each arranged in Burton's sprawling style. characteristically the introduction includes not only an author's note titled "Democritus Junior to the Reader" but also a Latin poem "Democritus Junior to His Book" a warning to "The Reader Who Employs His Leisure Ill" an abstract of the following text and another poem explaining the frontispiece. The following three sections proceed in a similarly exhaustive fashion: the first section focuses on the causes and symptoms of "common" melancholies while the second section deals with cures for melancholy and the third section explores more complex and esoteric melancholies including the melancholy of lovers and all varieties of religious melancholies. The Anatomy concludes with an extensive index which many years later The New York Times Book Review called "a readerly pleasure in itself".; additionally most modern editions of the book are supplemented with many pages of explanatory notes for the reader. Throughout the book Burton's digressive and inclusive style often verging on a stream of consciousness consistently informs and animates the text. Though nominally a medical book the Anatomy is "vitalized by Burton's pervading humour" and is as much a sui generis work of literature as it is a scientific or philosophical text. The Anatomy of Melancholy has been admired by many subsequent writers from Samuel Johnson Charles Lamb and John Keats who professed it to be his favourite book to Stanley Fish Philip Pullman and Jorge Luis Borges who used a quote as an epigraph to his story "The Library of Babel". Despite its age The Anatomy of Melancholy is still considered an enduring if eccentric literary classic by many modern critics. UncleAndy. Seventh Edition. Half Calf Leather.

Worn boards but in quite lovely condition overall given its sheep and the age of the binding. Light rubbing to edges. Spine is colorful and supple. <br /> <br /> Interior: Most of the pages are gently toned with occasional sections of darker toning or browning/oxidization. First dozen leaves with ink spills mostly along the margins with some drips on title page. Infrequent spots of foxing. The occasional smudge a few bent corners. Large water dampening stains in pages 197-208 and 219-250. A few other areas with some smaller and lighter water dampening. Professional tear repairs at foot of title and dedication pages on blank versos.

John Harper signs his name with a date of 1748 on the title page dedication page and colophon. <br /> 2. J.B. Pooley neatly signs his name with a date of 1835 on FFEP and includes a famous quote from Dr. Samuel Johnson: The only book that ever took one out of bed two hours sooner than I wished to rise<br /> 3. Vignette bookplate of James S. Burra noted 19th century bibliophile and collector who had an impressive library of important books and manuscripts on front pastedown and his signature in pencil on FFEP. Burra interacts with the text throughout in pencil but lightly - underlining or marking passages along the margin sometimes writing a word or two of commentary. He also has notes in pencil on rear blanks including listing the pages works of Shakespeare are referenced etc.<br /> <br /> Numerous pagination errors as called for: page 79 is listed as 77 and 80 as 78. Pagination is off 2 until. when page 362 is misnumbered as 363 and pagination is off by one henceforth. Most importantly catch words align page-to-page and register is continuous.</p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <p>CONTENT & INFLUENCE</p> <br /> <p>Much of Anatomy was inspired by Burton's own struggles with depression. Anatomy starts with a roughly 200-page-long satirical introduction "Democritus to the Reader" narrated by Burton's pseudonym Democritus Junior. The main body of the book is divided into three partitions. The first partition is The Causes of Melancholy the second partition is The Cure of Melancholy and the third partition is Love-Melancholy and Religious Melancholy. The book regularly quotes biblical ancient and medieval medical authorities and literary sources.</p> <br /> <p>The Anatomy of Melancholy inspired countless writers of the following centuries including Samuel Johnson John Milton and Laurence Sterne and modern authors like Philip Pullman. Romantic poet John Keats claimed Anatomy was his favorite book. Burton's numerous anecdotes which tackle melancholy with both sobriety and humor as well as the overarching influence of his personal sadness on the book are often cited as making Anatomy his one truly great work.</p> .
