1783rif. 10489Paris: Chez la Veuve DeSaint 1783. FIRST EDITION IN FRENCH. Including half-titles approbation and privilege du Roi. Volume I with the Greek and French translations on facing pages. Contemporary tree calf some wear to joints and corners; marbled edges some light waterstains in first volume. From the library of George Milton Smith with his bookplate.`. First edition. Camus' translation of Aristotle's descriptive zoology from Greek into French is a masterpiece of scholarship. This highly esteemed translation is much sought after for its extensive erudite commentaries and profound enlightenment of comparative anatomy. Divided into two books the first volume contains Aristotle's original Greek with Camus' French translation facing. Here he documents all the various manuscripts editions and translators cited in the work. The second volume a detailed study of natural history up to the modern time contains Camus' careful observations on the commentaries of other translators. This work is of particular importance for Camus' nomenclature of those living creatures originally described in Aristotle's account. He lists all of the animals found in Aristotle works including those "fanciful and primitive" and then details the differences in terms of the modern knowledge of natural history. So great was the influence of Aristotle that his teachings and thought were accepted and enlarged upon for nearly two millennia. He was acquainted with more than five hundred species of animals and had dissected and investigated in detail at least fifty kinds ranging over the entire animal kingdom. Many of his conclusions have stood the test of time. Among them may be mentioned his descriptions of the mechanisms of locomotion of the process of digestion in ruminants of the habits of bees of the mechanism of animal reproduction; his exposition of analogous structures in living bodies; and his methods of biological classification Eimas Heirs of Hippocrates 14. Camus 1740-1804 French revolutionist was a successful advocate before the Revolution. In 1789 he was elected by the third estate of Paris to the states general and attracted attention by his speeches against social inequalities. He was named archivist to the Constituent Assembly and in that capacity he organized the national archives and classified the papers of the different assemblies of the Revolution. He was restored to the office in 1796 and became absorbed in literary work. He remained an austere republican refusing to take part in the Napoleonic regime. This scarce work was included in Thomas Jefferson's library. Chez la Veuve DeSaint unknown books

His influence on Werstern science and culture is immense. His boundless industry extended to most branches of higher learning. 74 treatises genuine and spurious have come down to us under his name. His 'Politics' literally 'the things concerning the polis' is among his best known and most widely read works. It embraces in 8 books the historical theoretical and practical aspect of politics. To Aristotle 'politics were the very crown of philosophical study . and the ultimate end of the State to provide an environment in which those capable of the highest mental and moral development might attain thereto. . The important sections of this great work are the sketch of the ideal state . the account of the various forms of government . the discussions of sovranty and responsibility and of kingship'. H.J. Rose 'A handbook of Greek literature' Oxford 1965 p. 276 § This Basle edition of 1582 of the Politics adopts the Greek text Latin translation and the famous commentary earlier published by the Italian scholar Piero Vettori Petrus Victorius 1499-1585 at Florence in 1576. Vettori professor of Greek and Latin in the 'Studio Fiorentino' at Florence was the greatest Italian Greek scholar of his time. His best known works in the field of Greek philology are his commentaries on Aristotle's Rhetoric 1548 Poetics 1560 Politics 1576 and Nicomachean Ethics 1584. Every chapter caput in this Politics edition of 1582 is printed separately followed by Vettori's very extensive and rich commentary. The Greek text is flanked by 2 Latin translations one of Vettori and one which the French scholar and Royal Reader in Greek Denys Lambin Dionysius Lambinus 1520-1572 had published in Paris in 1567. Added to the chapters are hot from the press the notes and diagrams of the Basle professor of Greek and Moral philosophy Theodor Zwinger Theodorus Zuingerus 1533-1588. He is best known for his editions of the Nicomachean Ethics Basle 1566 and the Politica of Aristotle Basle 1582 in which he transformed these works in a series of diagrams analysing and showing their structures in systematic tables. Appended are the 'Pythagoreorum fragmenta politica' in the edition of the French scholar Jean de Sponde or Johannes Spondanus 1557-1595 Provenance: Bookplates of: 'United Presbyterian Church.

Description: "A new account of Aristotle’s 'Ethics' this book argues for the central importance of the concept of ‘techne’ or ‘craft’ in Aristotle’s moral theory. Exploring the importance of ‘techne’ in the Platonic and pre-Platonic intellectual context in which Aristotle was writing Tom Angier here shows that this concept has an important role in Aristotle's 'Ethics' that has rarely been studied in Anglo-American scholarship. Through close-analysis of the primary texts this book uses the focus on ‘techne’ to systematically critique and renew Aristotelian moral philosophy. 'Techne in Aristotle’s Ethics’ provides a novel and challenging approach to one of the Ancient World’s most enduring intellectual legacies.

Description: "The work of Aristotle 384-322 bc is considered to be one of the great achievements of the ancient world and is a foundation of both Western and Middle Eastern philosophy and science. Although Aristotle left significant material on almost all branches of learning what has survived is a somewhat disorganized collection of notes and lectures. Moreover the centuries of interpretation across various epochs and cultures tend to cloud our understanding of him. Thomas Kiefer breaks through this cloud of interpretation and provides an organized account of one key part of Aristotle's philosophy namely his theory of knowledge. This theory concerns what is knowledge what we can know and how we can do so. Kiefer's book is the first work that takes this theory as its sole focus and reconstructs it systematically. Kiefer's work throughout provides many new interpretations of key parts of Aristotle's philosophy including an unnoticed -but crucial- distinction between knowledge in general and knowledge for us the differences between his semantic and psychological requirements for knowledge and 'nous' which is perhaps the most obscure notion in Aristotle's work. He also concludes with a summary of Aristotle's theory in the terms and style of contemporary epistemology. Kiefer's work should be of interest to anyone involved in the history of philosophy or contemporary epistemology." -- with a bonus offer--; The work of Aristotle 384-322 BC is considered to be one of the great achievements of the ancient world and is a foundation of both Western and Middle Eastern philosophy and science.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 204 pages. Description: "Aristotle's 'Nicomachean Ethics' is devoted to the topic of human happiness. Yet although Aristotle's conception of happiness is central to his whole philosophical project there is much controversy surrounding it. Hope May offers a new interpretation of Aristotle's account of happiness - one which incorporates Aristotle's views about the biological development of human beings. May argues that the relationship amongst the moral virtues the intellectual virtues and happiness is best understood through the lens of developmentalism. On this view happiness emerges from the cultivation of a number of virtues that are developmentally related. May goes on to show how contemporary scholarship in psychology ethical theory and legal philosophy signals a return to Aristotelian ethics. Specifically May shows how a theory of motivation known as Self-Determination Theory and recent research on goal attainment have deep affinities to Aristotle’s ethical theory. May argues that this recent work can ground a contemporary virtue theory that acknowledges the centrality of autonomy in a way that captures the fundamental tenets of Aristotle’s ethics." -- with a bonus offer--; Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is devoted to the topic of human happiness.
