1682 Glanvill & More Anglican Philosophy Eastern Sages Robert Boyle Ireland
A rare, late 17th-century printing of two famed English philosophical essays by Joseph Glanvill and Dr. Henry More. These two English philosophers were known to have influenced each other on a variety of philosophical issues. Their works were often found published together as is the case with this 1682 printing of 'Two Choice and Useful Treatises'. Glanvill's 'Lux Orientalis' was his philosophical stance on the fundamental theories of the Anglican Church. It was written as a defense of More's doctrine of 'Preexistence of Souls' (DNB XXI), and was notable for being included in a letter to Robert Boyle!
Dr. Henry More found himself in a number of controversial arguments with Robert Boyle mostly because he was interested in new forms of philosophical science and unfocused on the scientific evidences found by Boyle. His treatise 'Discourse of Truth' expresses many of these philosophical views.

Cornelius Tacitus was a 1st-century Roman historian who is now remembered for his two major works – 'Annals' and 'Histories' – in which he examines the lives and political careers of important Roman emperors such as Tiberius, Nero, and Claudius. By many accounts, Tacitus is considered the greatest Roman historian, not only by the accuracy of his content, but through demonstrating the psychological nature of ancient Roman politics.

1732 John LOCKE Essay Concerning Education English Philosophy Pedagogy Sydenham

"I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts."
– John Locke

After studying medicine under the teaching of Thomas Sydenham, John Locke began his journey of philosophical thinking that would develop into some of his most famous works. In 1693, Locke published a treatise on education entitled 'Thoughts Concerning Education'. Throughout the 18th-century it was the most important work on the philosophy of education in England. This work was an extension from 'Concerning Human Understanding' in which he describes how to educate the 'blank slate' mind described in 'Human Understanding'.

A rare 1732 edition of Locke's famous education treatise.
