Eaton. 1855 though 1856 is stamped on the bottom of the spine; Longman Brown Green and Longmans; Oxford / W. Graham Oxford; London. With text in both English and Greek. "The want of a fresh edition of Aristotle's Politics has long been felt; and the present one is due to an application arising from an increasing demand. It is the aim of this edition to exhibit as far as has been found possible the present state of knowledge on subjects connected with the text; as also to guide the student into a wider field of illustration and reflection than would be afforded by a literal commentary. The text adopted is that of Bekker on which the laborious accuracy of Stahr has ingrafted little substantial improvement. Care has been taken throughout to direct the student to all important variations of the MSS. or suggestions on the part of commentators."Condition:Clean covers; fading to cloth on the spine and at the top edge of the back cover. There is a 3" tear to the cloth at the top-right corner of the spine. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages.

1836Bv1422<p>First edition of John S. Brewer's The Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle with English Notes Oxford Henry Slater 1836. Distinguished primarily by its inclusion of extensive English notes and commentary designed to aid readers in understanding Aristotle's text Brewer's Nicomachean Ethics differs from many earlier and contemporary editions which often presented the Greek text alone or with minimal annotation. This editorial approach was particularly valuable in the 19th century as it made the work more accessible to those English-speaking students and scholars who lacked fluency in Ancient Greek. Brewer's edition was intended as a scholarly resource for students and readers seeking a deeper understanding of Aristotle's ethical philosophy. The notes serve both as a linguistic aid and as an introduction to Aristotelian thought making the edition particularly suitable for educational settings. The profound impact of the Nicomachean Ethics on Western intellectual history is undeniable. It served as a cornerstone of medieval philosophy and significantly influenced the subsequent development of modern philosophy European legal systems and theology. Aristotle's stature was such that he was frequently referred to simply as "the Philosopher." "If there is a philosophical Atlas who carries the whole of Western Civilization on his shoulders it it Aristotle. He has been opposed misinterpreted misrepresented and -- like an axiom -- used by his enemies in the very act of denying him. Whatever intellectual progress men have achieved rests on his achievements" Ayn Rand 1963. Text very fresh and clean. Octavo original calf elaborately gilt-decorated spine with raised bands. Some scattered foxing on opening and closing blank pages. PO's tiny bookplate and signature. Lightly penciled note on P.228 and back pastedown. A lovely near-fine copy handsomely bound.

1801Bv2422<p>First Edition of Aristotle's Metaphysics in English London 1801 translated by Thomas Taylor a leading English classicist of his day. Translated by Thomas Taylor a leading English classicist of the day. "In his knowledge of Plato and Aristotle he has never been equaled by any Englishman and he is still the most important disseminator of ancient philosophy in the history of English and American literature. Taylor went on to complete all the works of Aristotle but his introduction and important Dissertation which appear here were not included in the Works Axon 11. "If there is a philosophical Atlas who carries the whole of Western civilization on his shoulders it is Aristotle. He has been opposed misinterpreted misrepresented and -- like an axiom -- used by his enemies in the very act of denying him. Whatever intellectual progress men have achieved rests on his achievements" Rand The Objectivist Newsletter 1963. This "philosophical Atlas" was born in 384 B.C. in Stagira an ancient Greek city in the northeastern region of modern Greece. At seventeen Aristotle traveled to Athens to study at Plato's Academy. He remained at the Academy until Plato's death in 348 B.C. In 343 B.C. Aristotle was recruited to tutor King Alexander the III revered as "Alexander the Great" for his formidable conquests throughout Europe and Asia. Later he established his own school The Lyceum which instructed students in a breadth of branches from rhetoric and logic to philosophy and the natural sciences. The Metaphysics is one of the principal works of Aristotle and history's first major work on this fundamental branch of philosophy. Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy which studies existence as such of "being qua being" according to Aristotle. It "identifies the nature of the universe as a whole. It tells men what kind of world they live in and whether there is a supernatural dimension beyond it. It tells men whether they live in a world of solid entities natural laws absolute facts or in a world of illusory fragments unpredictable miracles and ceaseless flux. It tells men whether the things they perceive by their senses and mind form a comprehensible reality with which they can deal or some kind of unreal appearance which leaves them staring and helpless" Peikoff 23. "This edition contains some valuable matter by the translator not reprinted in the ninth volume of his complete translation of Aristotle s Works" Lowndes 69. Complete with blank leaves and half-title. In near fine condition no writings markings or bookplates of any kind; wide margins some scattered light foxing.
