Finely rebound in full polished calf some foxing and discoloration to title along with an old owner's mark title trimmed a little close at bottom scattered light foxing; a nice clean copy overall. The best Latin edition with the added material by Papin and Mohyus 8 722 42pp. Digby was a renowned world traveler who supposedly spoke 10 or 12 languages - he collected recipes and scientific discoveries to bring back to England. The basis of this work is an extension of a speech he gave in Montpelier a few years previous on the Powder of Sympathy where an element of the weapon was treated in order to cure the wound it caused - usually by removing the bandage from a musket wound treating the bandage with the powder and thereby curing the wound. The theory was remarkable for its high levels of both nonsense and popularity. Hudibras mocked the idea in the following year and a 1687 joke version had it performed at a set time on a ship born dog in order to determine longitude. Size: Quarto 4to. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: Medicine & Health; Science & Technology. Inventory No: 045796. <br/><br/> Johann Andreas Endter & Wolfgang hardcover books

183565419Jesus Without the Myths STRAUSS David Friedrich. Das Leben Jesu kritisch bearbeitet. Tubingen: Osiander 1835-36. First edition of this important work. Two octavo volumes 7 5/8 x 4 7/8 inches; 195 x 124 mm. xvi 731 1 2 publisherÃs ads; xii 750 2 errata pp. PublisherÃs blind-ruled and beveled black cloth spines with central gilt arabesques surrounding the gilt lettering pastepaper endpapers edges stained red. Some underlining in blue on a few pages. Some scattered foxing. Overall a very good copy. "The publication of 'The Life of Jesus Critically Considered' aroused a storm of controversy; its revolutionary thesis and content were violently attacked and wrenched out of context. Strauss's principal objective was to explode not only the traditional orthodox view of the Gospel accounts of the life of Jesus but also earlier rationalistic views." PMM p. 182. Strauss's first and greatest work a crucial text in the history of biblical studies and of religious scholarship generally. The first consistent systematic application of the then quasi-Hegelian notion of myth to the New Testament and early Christianity offering an epoch-making interpretation of the Christ of the Gospels as the unintentional product of a "mythos" of Messianic expectation already present in ancient Hebrew culture. The book was a scandal which adversely affected Strauss's entire career offending rationalist and orthodox biblical literalists alike Printing and the Mind of Man 300.
