185244909Paris Durand 1852. 8vo. Contemporary half calf with of wear. Spine worn lacking parts of capitals and back hinge very weak. Usual brownspotting due to the paper quality. 4 XII 367 pp. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Renan's first book -the seminal work that placed the study of Renaissance philosophy on the philosophical map and earned Renan a doctorate of letters. This work constitutes the first proper monograph on the great Islamic philosopher Ibn Rush also called Averroes who is considered the greatest commentator on the works of Aristotle and it is principally because of this work that the great philosopher and scientist is seriously appreciated in Europe today. Besides dealing with Averroes himself Renan studies the development and different branches of Averroism focusing on the Jewish Scholastic and Paduan ones. His focus on the Paduan Averroism 16th century in this work has meant that Renaissance philosophy was finally given a role of its own in the history of philosophy -it is with this work that the philosophy of the Renaissance is taken seriously in the study of philosophy."Memoirs on semitic languages and on the study of Greek in the Middle Ages were crowned by the Académie in 1848 and 1849 but do not seem to have been published. Renan's first book published in 1852 was in fact "Averroes et l'Averroïsme" which earned him a doctorate of letters." PMM 352. Renan has always been admired for his sharp mind his great abilities and courage but for the same reasons he was feared by many. "Dés 1852 il signalait dans la préface de son Averroës comme le trait caractéristique du dix-neuvième siècle la substitution de la méthode historique dans toutes les études relatives à l'esprit humain. Cette substitution est légitime; mais elle serait dangereuse si elle allait jusqu'à proscrire la théologie et la métaphysique. " N.B.G. 1862 51:984. Ernest Renan 1823-1892 was a French philologist philosopher and historian. His father died when he was aged five and his mother wanted him to become a priest. Until he was about 16 years old he was trained by the Church but due to his investigative and truth-seeking nature as well as his studies e.g. Hebrew he was in doubt as to the historical truth of the Scriptures and with the help of his sister he chose his own path in life. "He studied intensively the languages of the Bible and filled a number of minor academic positions frequently encountering difficulties because of the heterodoxy and outspokenness of his religious opinions." Printing and the Mind of Man 352. In 1840 he began studying philosophy and later philology in 1847 he took his degree as Agrégé de Philosophie and became master at the Lycée of Vendome. After having returned from a mission to Italy in the year 1850 where he gathered material for his historical-philosophical masterpiece "Averroës et l'Averroisme" he was offered employment at the "Bibliothèque Nationale" at the manuscript department. In 1861 he was chosen to become professor of Hebrew at the Collège de France but because the emperor refused to ratify the appointment inspired by the Clerical party he was not established in the chair untill 1870. In 1878 he was elected for the Academy. Renan is considered a scolar of the greatest excellence and an impressive writer. </em> unknown

1891168820Paris: Imprimerie Nationale 1891. First fruits of Arabia First edition second issue with a cancel title page dated 1891 of this work originally published in 1884. This is the first publication in English of any account of Doughty's travels in Arabia predating Travels in Arabia Deserta by four years. The preface is in French by the semitic scholar Ernest Renan. In 1865 the German orientalist Theodor Nöldeke proposed that the Nabataean rock carvings in Jordan contained the origins of the Arabic script. For this hypothesis "Doughty's book remains an invaluable mine of source material. He had the advantages of a slow pace almost unlimited time an amazingly observant eye and perhaps most of all the compulsion to record without omissions every fact observed" Tabachnick p. 17. Doughty 1843-1926 arrived at Ma'an in May 1875 after a three-month camel journey through Sinai. There he heard of the Nabataean inscriptions at Mada'in Salih and nearby Hijr. Although neither the British Association nor the Royal Geographical Society was willing to provide financial support he spent a year studying Arabic and set out with the pilgrim caravan in 1876. He planned only a brief stay in the region but ended up wandering in Arabia for nearly two years: his adventures included a visit to Mohammed ibn Rashidthe ruler of northern Arabia a period of imprisonment by a Turkish commandant at Khaybar a series of dangerous episodes at Buraydah 'Unayzah and Mecca and a stay with the sharif of Mecca at Ta'if. A preliminary report in German of Doughty's observations appeared in the periodical Globus in 1881. Quarto 287 x 220 mm. With 54 plates mostly heliographs 9 folding 3 maps; text in French and English. Recent brown half calf to style flat spine ruled in gilt and blind black morocco label marbled boards top edge cut.
