From the collection of J. Richard D.M. Ex Bibliotheca 18th-century armorial rubber stamp to title and p. 3 possibly French 1638-1739. Early Illustrated Edition of Descartes Discourse on the Method one of the most influential works in the history of modern philosophy and important to the evolution of natural sciences. This work features Descartes famous line I think therefore I am which he wrote in French Je pense donc je suis thereby reaching a wider audience in his country than that of scholars. The Discours was originally published in Leiden in 1637. Published also in Paris the same year as this edition is an edition by Bobel and De Gras. Descartes started his line of reasoning by doubting everything so as to assess the world from a fresh perspective clear of any preconceived notions. In the Discourse Descartes tackles the problem of skepticism which had previously been studied by Sextus Empiricus Al- Ghazali and Michel de Montaigne. The Discourse divided into six parts was intended as an introduction to three of his works Dioptrique Météores and Géométrie. His statements of the elementary laws of matter and movement in the physical universe the theory of vortices and many other speculations threw light on every branch of science from optics to biology; all this found its starting-point in the Discourse. La Géométrie contains Descartes first introduction of the Cartesian coordinate system. Together with his Meditations on First Philosophy Meditationes de Prima Philosophia Principles of Philosophy Principia philosophiae and Rules for the Direction of the Mind Regulae ad directionem ingenii the Discourse forms the base of the Epistemology known as Cartesianism. The Discours was Descartes first published work the much-talked about World or Cosmos having been suppressed or destroyed on his hearing of the condemnation of Galileo in 1632. In 1636 however when 40 years of age he felt that it was time to bring his views before the public and publish them abroad. Descartes endeavored to preserve the anonymity of his work with scrupulous care but in the end he found himself compelled to avow his authorship Osler 928. Descartes Discourse thoroughly a foundational work in the history of modern philosophy this augmented edition with many fine woodcuts remaining fresh and bright. <br/><br/> Chez Charles Angot hardcover
