PHILOSOPHY a Chronological Presentation of “The History of Ideas” ATHENA RARE BOOKS CATALOG 11 PHILOSOPHY A Chronological Presentation of “The History of Ideas” Athena Rare Books specializes in the history of ideas and, given our long devotion to that subject, we find it almost impossible to think of these eminent philosophers other than in the context in which they lived and the ways in which they related to one another in their own time. The philosophers have therefore been arranged in this catalog by the years of their birth (excepting only James & Nietzsche – James just seems so post-Nietzschean to me!) in the hopes that a reading of this catalog will afford you with the opportunity to experience at least a glimpse of the broad sweep that the history of ideas has had in the West over the past 2,500 years. For those who prefer a more traditional arrangement, we offer the alphabetical listings below: ALPHABETICAL INDEX OF PHILOSOPHERS Abercrombie 36 Kant 23 Aristotle 3 Kierkegaard 42 Cicero 4 Heidegger 55 Bacon 5 Husserl 54 Beauvoir 59 Hyppolite 58 Bentham 29 Lacman 12 Bolzano 37 Levinas ` 58 Brentano 44 Locke 13 Burke 27 Meiners 28 Camus 59 Merleau-Ponty 59 Carnap 57 Mettrie 18 Condillac 22 Mill (James) 33 Cudworth 10 Mill (John S.) 41 Deleuze 61 Montesquieu 14 Descartes 7 Nietzsche 46 Dewey 54 Peirce 44 Epictetus 4 Plato 1 Feuerbach 41 Rawls 60 Fichte 31 Reinhold 30 Foucault 62 Ritter 40 Fries 34 Rousseau 19 Hegel 33 R o y c e 53 Helvetius 21 Schelling 35 Herbart 36 Schlosser 28 Herder 29 Schopenhauer 39 Hobbes 6 Shaftesbury 15 Holbach 23 Spinoza 11 Hume 18 Stewart 30 Hutcheson 16 Stirner 42 Irigaray 62 Upham 40 James 52 Voltaire 17 Johnson 38 Wittgenstein 55 Kames 17 Wollstonecraft 31 Plato [428-347 BCE] The STEPHANUS Edition The Universal Reference for All of Plato’s Works Three Volumes Elegantly Bound in Full Vellum Platonis opera quae extant omnia.

"A great Renaissance author and scholar as well as a member of one of Europe's most illustrious families of printers, Henri Estienne II himself edited his grand Plato, for which he commissioned a new Latin translation by Jean de Serres.

In addition to this, his previous duties were those of British Resident at Venice and a member of Parliament. The Republic is a Socratic dialogue by Plato, written in approximately 380 BC. It is one of the most influential works of philosophy and political theory, and among Plato`s best known works. In Plato`s fictional dialogues, the characters of Socrates as well as various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether the just man is happier than the unjust man by imagining a society ruled by philosopher-kings and the guardians. The dialogue also discusses Plato`s Theory of Forms, the place of poetry, and the immortality of the soul. 1 A magnificent contemporary binding in full red goatskin with elaborate decorations on both the front and back covers.

[xiv], 71 + one leaf; gothic letter, title printed in red and black within a composite woodcut border of renaissance ornament, printer’s woodcut device in the centre, woodcut initials, headpieces; last leaf (blank except for printer’s device on recto) in deceptive facsimile, wormhole in lower blank margins of three gatherings carefully filled in, one leaf (I1) remargined on three sides with loss of a few letters, some light browning; otherwise a very sound and large copy with some uncut edges, in recent limp vellum wrappers. £3800 First edition in Spanish of Alberti’s Momus (or De principe) translated by Augustín de Almaçan and with an introductory Exposición by the Toledo ascetic writer and scholar Alejo Venegas (1495?–1554?). An indispensable source for Alberti’s political thought and a supremely interesting example of how the comic spirit of the early Renaissance expressed itself in literature, Alberti’s Momus is a political and social satire set in the form of an allegorical/mythological fable. Its mood is that of a light- hearted humanist jeu d’esprit; its humorous and even farcical manner was intended, as Alberti states in his preface, to make readers laugh while at the same time confronting them with serious political and social issues, in particular, with the question of what makes a good ruler.

  • Paolo Sarpi, the Absolutist State and the Territoriality of the Adriatic Sea
    Erasmo Castellani Paolo Sarpi, the Absolutist State and the Territoriality of the Adriatic Sea The years between the second half of the sixteenth century and the first few decades of the seventeenth constituted a period of general reconfiguration throughout the Mediterranean. The hegemonic position held by Venice from centuries on the Adriatic Sea, or “the Venetian Gulf”, as it was called, started to be disputed persistently by other powers. The Dominio da mar, the Venetian territories in the Mediterranean – and Venice itself – were not living their best times: Venice was still recovering from the terrible wounds inflicted by the Ottoman Empire in the 1570s, and trying to solve the tragic loss of Cyprus, extremely significant for the Republic not only in terms of resources and men, but also for its political value and reputation. The Turks, who had represented the main threat for the Venetian maritime territories from the end of the fourteenth century, were worn-out too by the intense and truculent decade, and after 1573 (the so-called war of Cyprus), did not engage in seafaring wars with Venice until 1645 with the Cretean wars. The Uskok corsairs, who enjoyed the support of the Archduke Ferdinand of Austria, officially to fight the Turks, tormented Venice and its territories on the Dalmatian coast between the 1580s and 1610s, raiding villages, cargos and, in general, making the Adriatic routes less and less secure. The Uskoks, as the Barbary corsairs, represented not only a harmful presence on the sea, but also an economic and political threat for Venice: corsairs activities in fact offered to the Venetian subjects on the 1 Dalmatian coast opportunities to engage in small commercial enterprises without being submitted to the Serenissima’s regulations.

  • The Threat from the Sea. the Kingdom of Naples Between Piracy, Warfare and Statehood in a Tractatus by Giovan Francesco De Ponte
    THE THREAT FROM THE SEA. THE KINGDOM OF NAPLES BETWEEN PIRACY, WARFARE AND STATEHOOD IN A TRACTATUS BY GIOVAN FRANCESCO DE PONTE LA MINACCIA DAL MARE. IL REGNO DI NAPOLI TRA PIRATERIA, GUERRA E COSTRUZIONE DELLO ‘SPAZIO’ STATALE IN UN TRACTATUS DI GIOVAN FRANCESCO DE PONTE Francesco Serpico Università degli Studi del Molise [email protected] Abstract english: The paper focuses on the topic of the impact of piracy on the institu- tional framework in the Kingdom of Naples during the Modern Age (XVIth ̶ XVIIth centu- ries). Many historians agree that the continuous Ottoman̶-Barbaresque raids on the coast of Southern Italy played a key role in the conditions of fragility and weakness of the South and its progressive marginalization from the economic and productive networks of early modern Europe. Consequently, the paper first analyzes the reason for military weakness of the Kingdom of Naples, and then it examines the effect of defensive vulnerability on the political-constitutional field through a Juridical culture’s paradigmatic text: theTrac- tatus de potestate Proregis et Collaterali Consilii et regimine Regni by Giovan Francesco De Ponte. In hindsight, the evaluation of the strategies of the government during the Spanish viceroyalty shows how the strong alliance between the Spanish Monarchy and the lawyers-administrators (the noble of robes) was a formidable legitimizing machine for the monarchy, but it also leads to the nobility progressively moving away from its tra- ditional role of government and military defense. The final result of this compromise was to deprive the Kingdom of the only means that they had that could effectively counter attack the maritime dominance of the Ottoman-Barabresque pirates and feed a growing sense of insecurity which deeply scarred the fragile political balances of the southern Monarchy.

    History of Renaissance and Modern Logic from 1400 to 1850 https://www.historyoflogic.com/logic-modern.htm History of Logic from Aristotle to Gödel by Raul Corazzon | e-mail: [email protected] History of Renaissance and Modern Logic from 1400 to 1850 INTRODUCTION: LOGIC IN CONTINENTAL EUROPE "At the end of the fourteenth century there were roughly three categories of work available to those studying logic. The first category is that of commentaries on Aristotle's 'Organon'. The most comprehensive of these focussed either on the books of the Logica Vetus, which included Porphyry's Isagoge along with the Categories and De Interpretatione; or on the books of the Logica Nova, the remaining works of the 'Organon' which had become known to the West only during the twelfth century. In addition there were, of course, numerous commentaries on individual books of the 'Organon'. The second category is that of works on non-Aristotelian topics. These include the so-called Parva logicalia, or treatises on supposition, relative terms, ampliation, appellation, restriction and distribution. To these could be added tracts on exponibles and on syncategorematic terms. Peter of Spain is now the best-known author of parva logicalia, but such authors as Thomas Maulvelt and Marsilius of Inghen were almost as influential in the late fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Another group of works belonging to the second category consists of the so-called 'tracts of the moderns', namely treatises on consequences, obligations and insolubles. A third group includes treatises on sophisms, on the composite and divided senses, and on proofs of terms, especially the well-known Speculum puerorum by Richard Billingham.

Faust's Begehren: Revisiting the History of Political Economy in Faust II Abstract Since The ubP lication of Faust II, commentators interested in economic aspects of the text have focused primarily on three of its five acts. Bernd Mahl, whose work on Goethe’s economic knowledge remains a standard reference, writes that the topics most frequently addressed following its publication are the creation of paper money in act 1, Faust’s renewed activity in act 4, and the commercial ventures of Faust and Mephistopheles in act 5.1 More recent investigations have generally continued this trend.2 Given this lengthy history of interpretation, what is one to make of the second and third acts of Faust II with respect to economic matters? In the “Ökonomische Lesart” (Economic Reading) section of his Faust commentary, Ulrich Gaier offers this assessment: “Angesichts der Tatsache, daß sich der 2.
