Sobre este artículo
Hartford [CT]: Cook and Company, 1834 Hard cover, 8vo. (8 ¾" x 5 ½"), in publisher's pebbled brown cloth with leather label in gilt to spine, top edge trimmed, other edges untrimmed. xxxiv + 355 pp. Condition : Good. Spine moderately sunned. Corners lightly rubbed, with the cloth at foot of spine a bit crumpled. Foxed throughout. Pencilled ownership signature ("Charles Ingalls") to front free endpaper. Otherwise the book is sound and remarkably well preserved, given its age. *** From the advertisement: " This examination of the Essay on the Human Understanding, is pronounced, by the writer of the article on the "Philosophy of Perception," in the Edinburgh Review for October 1830, No. 103, Art. IX., p 191, to be " the most important work on Locke, since the Nouveaux Essais of Leibnitz." …."It must be acknowledged to be perhaps the greatest master-piece of philosophical criticism ever exhibited to the public. (excerpt from the translator). *** Victor Cousin (1792-1867) was a French philosopher, most famous for his influence on philosophical education in France. This work is based on a series of ten lectures he gave in 1829 on the English Enlightenment philosopher, John Locke (1632-1704), and especially his work, "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding" (1689), in which Locke attempts to describe step-by-step, from "simple ideas" (color, shape etc) to "complex ideas" (number, cause and effect etc), the process by which humans gain knowledge and consciousness. *** Scarce first edition.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Good.
