Le transfert culturel eut donc un effet boomerang. En dÃ•autres termes lÃ•adaptation culturelle Âˆ laquelle Coste fut contraint de procÂŽder pour traduire Some Thoughts concerning Education en franÂais fut ensuite adoptÂŽe par lÃ•auteur anglais pour son texte source qui fut ainsi enrichi de lÃ•idÂŽe du traducteur franÂaisÃ“.

First Latin edition and second overall printing of a selection of Locke's responses to Edward Stillingfleet Bishop of Worcester. 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.

An Essay Concerning Human Understanding in Four Books

1700B5207London: Awnsham and John Churchil c. 1700. A fine example of this desirable work. Edition: 4th edition with large additions. Binding: Contemporary brown speckled calf boards with blind tooled decorative borders on top and bottom cover rebacked skillfully. Spine in six compartments with gilt text on 2 and 6. Tooled decorations on 1 3 4 5 and 6. 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.

Housed in a quarter morocco clamshell case. Overall an excellent copy; very clean and in a contemporary binding. Originally published in 1690 as Ã«Two Treatises of GovernmentÃ. Ã¬LockeÃs anonymous text is here an anonymous translation traditionally attributed to David Mazel. Ã«One of the Huguenot pastors living in HollandÃ of the second treatise in its 1R version with the first chapter omittedÃ¬ Yolton. Ã¬The second treatise contains a plain statement of the principles of democracy. In an age and country in which the practice of democracy had just been triumphantly vindicated LockeÃs theories although anticipated to some degree by the Ã«WhigÃ tradition of political thought-Aristotle Aquinas Hooker Grotius-had all the freshness of novelty. Like Hooker Locke presupposes an original and necessary law of reason and bases the constitution of society on it rather than on the de facto existence of a government based on the actual submission of the governed to the rulers. This consent is thus a prior condition of the Ã«social contractÃ not a result of it so that the civil rulers hold their power not absolutely but conditionally; government being essentially a moral trust which lapses if the trustees fail to maintain their side of the contract. Locke was to reinforce these liberal opinions by his Letters on Tolerance and they combine with the Treatises on Government to provide a classic example of the empirical approach to the social and political economy which has remained ever since the basis of the principles of democracyÃ® PMM. Its influence on the development of French and American political though cannot be overstated. Graesse IV 243. Printing and the Mind of Man 163. Yolton Locke 46.

Comprised of: The Second edition Corrected of: Some Considerations of the Consequences of the Lowering of Interest and Raising the Value of Money. In a Letter to a Member of Parliament 1691. London: for Awnsham and John Churchill 1696. and Short Observations on a Printed Paper Intituled For encouraging the Coining Silver Money in England and after for keeping it here. 1695 and Further Considerations Concerning Raising the Value of Money. Wherein Mr. LowndesÃs Arguments for it in his late Report concerning An Essay for the Amendment of the Silver Coins are particularly Examined. London: Printed for A. and J. Churchil 1695. ESTC lists two variants: one has "By John Locke Esq;" on the title-page 'Further Considerations' dated 1695 and 111 pages. The other issue has "By Mr. John Locke" on the title-page "Further Considerations" dated 1696 and 112 pages. This copy is a combination of the two with 'Further Considerations' dated 1695 and "By Mr. John Locke" on the title-page. Ã¬Ã«The Great RecoinageÃ controversy of the 1690s was the impetus for LockeÃs writings on mercantile and monetary theory. In the 1660s Sir Josiah Child had argued that the legal rate of interest should be lowered. It was still a topic for political discussion in the early 1690s: Child was still pressing the argument and was supported by London merchants. Locke however defended a legal rate of interest but refused to fix it below the current rates. This was the occasion for his publishing Some Considerations of the Consequences of the Lowering of Interest and Raising the Value of Money in 1692. When William Lowndes Secretary of the Treasury proposed in 1695 to raise the nominal value of coins Locke slightly revised Some Considerations and also published two further pamphlets Short Considerations and Further Considerations. At that time gold and silver coins had a value equivalent to their metal content representing nothing but their silver or gold quantity. Locke rejected devaluation basing his argument on this Ã«commodity theoryÃ of money. He considered Ã«raising of the denomination or the increase of alloyÃ to be debasement and fraudÃ® Yolton. Ã¬LockeÃs second major essay Further Considerations Concerning Raising the Value of Money 1695 while it reiterated many of his earlier arguments was mostly concerned with the issue of recoinage. Locke took issue with a proposal to devalue the official coinage by 20 per cent and argued strongly for recoining at the old standard the currently circulating coins debased by clipping and normal wear and tear. Money Locke argued was equivalent to gold and silver. People contracted for gold and silver and a government stamp was simply an assurance of the specie content of official coins. Hence a devaluation would only confuse trade and cause an increase in prices denominated in terms of pounds and shillingsÃ® The New Palgrave. Einaudi. Goldsmiths'. Kress.

Jean Yolton notes that N. Petter Nidditch estimates this edition to be printed in 800 copies. John Locke 1632-1704 philosopher and fellow of the Royal Society was the secretary and close associate of Ashby the first Earl of Shaftsbury and Lord Chancellor. This "Essay" established him as the leading philosopher of his day and together with letters upon religious toleration provided the basis for Whig political thought for the next century and paved the way for the later philosophies of Bentham and the radicals. // Considered the father of English empiricism 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.
