1824rif. 152575London: John Bumpus 1824. Finely bound edition of this foundational text of British empiricism and one of the most influential works of philosophy ever written. Octavo bound in contemporary three quarter calf over marbled boards with gilt titles to the spine in six compartments within gilt bands all edges marbled engraved frontispiece portrait of Locke by Freeman after Sir Godfrey Kneller. Complete with notes in one volume and incorporating the author's last additions and corrections. In very good condition. An Essay Concerning Human Understanding is John Locke's masterpiece and one of the founding documents of modern philosophy. In it Locke set out to examine the origin certainty and extent of human knowledge arguing against the notion of innate ideas and contending that the mind at birth is a blank sheet a tabula rasa upon which all our ideas are written by experience through sensation and reflection. The Essay established the tradition of British empiricism carried forward by Berkeley and Hume shaped the Enlightenment's confidence in reason and observation and influenced the framers of the American republic who drew on Locke's account of the mind as well as on his political philosophy. John Locke was a physician philosopher and political thinker whose Two Treatises of Government furnished the intellectual foundations of liberal constitutionalism and whose ideas on toleration property and natural rights echo through the Declaration of Independence. Endlessly reprinted through the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the Essay long remained a standard text for students of philosophy. John Bumpus hardcover
