The Papers of G.E. Moore O.M. Sotheby's auction catalogue sale date: 17 December 1979
Sotheby's London separate auction catalogue for Lot 87 in the sale held on 17 December 1979. Printed wrappers 4to. 28 pp plates ills. 1 lot. An extensive archive of the philosophical and personal papers of G E Moore. From the introduction by Paul Levy: "This archive to which I alone have had access will provide historians and students of philosophy with material for innumerable books and articles. No previous writer on Moore even knew of or mentioned the existence of his papers written for the secret society called the Apostles membership of which was the single most important association of Moore's life apart from his marriage and his family. In this collection there are twenty-one papers that he delivered to the Cambridge Apostles; the earliest "What End " is Moore's first foray into philosophy and there is a clear line of development from that paper to Principia Ethica. Moreover there are the papers he wrote for the Trinity College Sunday Essay Society several of which are early philosophical pieces and the unpublished text of his Passmore Edwards Settlement lectures on "The Elements of Ethics" the immediate precursor of Principia Ethica. The drafts of his famous but rarely consulted Trinity Prize Fellowship Dissertation on Kant's ethical writings are however the most important items. Margins yellowed otherwise Good.
