The third edition but first appearance with this title of a collection of scriptural excerpts collected together thematically which was first published as Graphautarkeia London 1676.

These are not only an important source in understanding Locke's late and mature view on religion but are probably the most famous and indebt discussions related to his seminal work "An Essay concerning Humane Understanding" Locke engaged in. The topic is of special interest since: "Religion and Christianity in particular is perhaps the most important influence on the shape of Locke's philosophy". SEP: John Locke. The debate was essentially about Locke's definition of substance in "An Essay.". Stillingfleet argued that Locke advocated against dualism mind - body and thereby opening a door to Unitarianism. Locke did not support this view he however did not clearly reject the notion of Unitarianism and Socinianism. The volume contains the following:1. Bernoulli Jakob. Circinus proportionum nauticus scala loxodromica instructus. Pp. 91-3.2. Bernoulli Johann. Cycloidis primariae segmenta innumera quadraturam recipienta. Pp. 316-20 one engraved plate. 3.

He published books on human understanding and was the first to describe the idea of 'blank state' of the mind. However in 1685 Locke published the first of his 'commonplace books' in which he described the formulas for understanding ideas quotations and sayings. This style of writing proved effective for learners so many other writers began publishing common-place books to build on the popularity established by Locke.</p><p>One such work was "<em>A Commonplace Book to the Holy Bible</em>" – an anonymously published supplement to scripture reading and interpretation. It provides extensive descriptions on the character of God the relationship between Christ and the church on saints and the roles and duties believers.

1694149739London: Printed for Awnsham and John Churchil at the Black-Swan in Pater-Noster Row and Samuel Manship at the Ship in Cornhill near the Royal-Exchange 1694. Rare second edition of this fundamental work in the history of Western thought the first to name Locke as the author and to include the frontispiece portrait of him. Folio bound full paneled calf morocco spine label lettered in gilt elaborated diced stamping to the spine in five compartments within raised bands engraved frontispiece portrait of Locke by P.

From the library of the Isle of Wight Institution with stamps to the title page page 175 and verso of final leaf; ownership signature of British missionary Daniel Tyerman 1773-1828 of Newport Isle of Wight dated 1804 to the title page. The second edition of Locke's essay contains a number of important changes and additions to the text. It was the first to name Locke as the author and include the frontispiece portrait of him indicative of the celebrity Locke acquired with the publication of the first edition in 1690. "When Thomas Basset was running out of copies of the first edition in February 1693 he signed a contract with Locke to pay him ten shillings per sheet for additional materials for a new printing. These additions included an expansion of Book I Chap. IV; the chapter on power was almost entirely new; a new chapter 'Of Identity and Diversity' was inserted as 2.27 making chapters 27-31 to be renumbered as 2.28-32; and a discussion was added to 2.9.8. Other numerous additions were made throughout sectional summaries added in the margins and an analytical index supplied" Yolton. "It is Locke's second edition of the 'Essay on Human Understanding' that is the masterpiece we remember; the first 1690 edition did not bear Locke's name nor did it include a number of emendations that finished the work as Locke wanted it" Matthews Collecting Rare Books 97. "Locke was the first to take up the challenge of Bacon and to attempt to estimate critically the certainty and the adequacy of human knowledge when confronted with God and the universe" PMM 164. It is in this work that Locke 1632-1704 lays the foundations of British empiricism and the concept of the mind as a tabula rasa. "Locke summed up the Enlightenment in his belief in the middle class and its right to freedom of conscience and right to property in his faith in science and in his confidence in the goodness of humanity. His influence upon philosophy and political theory has been incalculable" Columbia Encyclopedia.

Tooled decorations on 1 3 4 5 and 6. <br> Notes: The essay is divided into 4 books within the one volume. John Locke FRS 1632 –v1704 was an English philosopher and physician regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers and known as the "Father of Classical Liberalism". Considered one of the first of the British empiricists following the tradition of Sir Francis Bacon he is equally important to social contract theory. His work greatly affected the development of epistemology and political philosophy. His writings influenced Voltaire and Rousseau many Scottish Enlightenment thinkers as well as the American revolutionaries. His contributions to classical republicanism and liberal theory are reflected in the United States Declaration of Independence. Locke was the first to take up the challenge of Bacon and to attempt to estimate critically the certainty and the adequacy of human knowledge when confronted with God and the universe. In the past similar enquiries had been vitiated by the human propensity to extend them beyond the range of human understanding and to invent causes for what it cannot explain. Therefore Locke’s first task was to ascertain ‘the original certainty and extent of human knowledge’ and excluding ‘the physical consideration of the mind to show how far it can comprehend the universe’. His conclusion is that though knowledge must necessarily fall short of complete comprehension it can at least be ‘sufficient’; enough to convince us that we are not at the mercy of pure chance and can to some extent control our own destiny" Printing and the Mind of Man Size: Small Folio 317x205mm.
