Sobre este artículo
London: Printed (by assignment from the executors of the late Mr. Tonson) for J. Beecroft,, 1767. Stated fourth edition, though in fact a re-issue of the third edition sheets of 1752 with a cancel title page. In Alciphron, first published in 1732, Berkeley rebuts the insurgent secular intellectual trends of the early Enlightenment. Countering the views of Locke, Mandeville, and the third Earl of Shaftesbury, who collectively manifest as the conceited free thinkers Lysicles and Alciphron, Berkeley defends traditional Christianity and his own idealist epistemology. Octavo (206 x 129 mm). Nineteenth-century half calf, green calf label, marbled sides, sprinkled edges. 19th-century bookplate of one Daniel Frazer to front pastedown. A little rubbed, small chip at foot of rear joint, binding firm, scattered light foxing else clean, slight paper fault to A8 not affecting text; a very good copy. ESTC N15774; Keynes 25; Jessop 169.
