JohnRogers, whose vast erudition, open mind and kind advice, oVered in numerous conversations and even more e- mailed replies, formed an invaluable source of help and inspiration. I am very much indebted to Prof.dr. M. A. Stewart for his thorough and comprehensive guidance in a whole range of editorial problems. Prof.dr.J. W. Yolton, Dr. I. Harris and Dr. J. R. Milton also made helpful suggestions. It was a pleasure to discuss work with Dr. Kiyoshi Shimokawa (Chubu University, Kasugai, Japan), who has recently finished a Japanese translation of the Conduct.Ienjoyed working at the Faculty of Philosophy of Utrecht University; Prof.dr.mag. K. Schuhmann, Dr. Ria van der Lecq and Dr. Piet Steenbakkers made useful remarks on the principles that underlie my edition, and Dr. Paul Mercken criticized the section on Aristotelian logic in the General Introduction with great acumen. Prof.dr. C. Dekker (University of Amsterdam) supported me in dealing with some puzzling palaeographical problems. My research was made possible by a substantial award from the British Academy. Generous grants from the Board of the Clarendon Edition of the Works of John Locke enabled me to consult Locke’s original manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. I thank Mrs. M. Clapinson, Keeper of the Western Manuscripts of the Bodleian Library, for her permission to transcribe the Conduct-part of MS Locke e.1 and to present the result here. This thesis could not have been produced without the kind eYciency of the staV of the Bodleian Library and of the Universiteitsbibliotheek Utrecht. Communication with members of the Philosophy Department of Keele University was mostly virtual, but was very pleasant whenever my visits to Keele allowed contacts to be real; I look back with particular fondness to the hospitality of Mrs. J. Rogers. I thank my friends Prof.dr. J. S. Folkers, Simona Brolsma and Marc Kooijmans for their careful reading and criticism of my work. I am especially grateful to Betty Stad, who again has lived up to her name of constant and loyal supporter of my various pursuits. Craig Walmsley and Sami-Juhani Savonius not only kept me alert by their own advances in Locke scholarship, which they used for many incisive remarks on the contents of my work, but also greatly assisted me in coping with the many intractabilities of the English language. My flatmates Ivo Geradts and Johannes Rustenburg, founding fathers of the Typographica Academica Traiectina, brought finesse to this thesis with their typographical professionalism and light to my meals with their willingness to play board games. Finally, my greatest debt is to my father and to my dear late mother, who I will vividly remember when I have forgotten all about Locke. Paul Schuurman Utrecht, January 2000 ABSTRACT The present thesis gives an edition of John Locke’s Of the Conduct of the Under- standing that is based, for the first time since 1706, on the original manuscripts, MS Locke e.1 and MS Locke c.28. The text has been provided with a text-critical apparatus and with historical and philosophical notes. The editor’s General Introduction is divided into two parts. The first part, ‘Context’, discusses Locke’s analysis of the nature of error, the causes of error and the prevention and cure of error in the Conduct. His enquiry is placed in the contextofhiswayofideasasgiveninhisEssay concerning Human Understanding. Locke’s two-stage way of ideas, his occupation with our mental faculties and with method form the interrelated main ingredients of his logic of ideas. There is a complicated relation of continuity and change between the content and the structure of this new logic on the one hand and the content and structure of works by both scholastic predecessors (Du Trieu, Smith, Sanderson) and representatives of the new philosophy (Descartes, Arnauld, Malebranche) on the other hand. Once this context is taken into account, the Conduct can be understood as a work that has a function within the structure of Locke’s informal logic of ideas that runs parallel to the function of the De sophisticis elenchis in the Aristotelian Organon. The second part of the General Introduction,‘Text’,gives a description of the relevant MSS, an overview of references to the Conduct in Locke’scorrespondence, ahistoryofthegenesisoftheConduct until its first publication in 1706 in the Posthumous Works, an analysis of the evidence provided by the MSS on how the Conduct grew out of the Essay, and a statement of the principles that underlie the present editon. ABBREVIATIONS OF TITLES AND USE OF CALENDAR SYSTEMS Editorial reference to passages in the Conduct is by the paragraph numbers as established in the present edition.

Umberto Eco, La memoria vegetale e altri scritti di bibliografia, Milano, Rovello, 2006 Si propone qui un’edizione del catalogo manoscritto della collezione libra- ria di Anthony Collins,1 la cui prima compilazione egli completò nel 1720.2 Nei nove anni successivi tuttavia Collins ampliò enormemente la sua biblioteca, sin quasi a raddoppiarne il numero delle opere. Annotò i nuovi titoli sulle pagine pari del suo catalogo che aveva accortamente riservato a successive integrazio- ni. Dispose le nuove inserzioni in corrispondenza degli autori già schedati, attento a preservare il più possibile l’ordine alfabetico. Questo tuttavia è talora impreciso e discontinuo.3 Le inesattezze, che ricorrono più frequentemente fra i titoli di inclusione più tarda, devono imputarsi alla difficoltà crescente di annotare nel giusto ordine le ingenti e continue acquisizioni. Sono altresì rico- noscibili abrasioni e cancellature ed in alcuni casi, forse per esigenze di spazio, oppure per sostituire i titoli espunti, i lemmi della prima stesura sono frammez- zati da titoli pubblicati in date successive al 1720.4 In appendice al catalogo, due liste confuse di titoli, per la più parte anonimi, si svolgono l’una nelle pagi- ne dispari e l’altra in quelle pari del volume.5 Agli anonimi seguono sparsi altri 1 Sono molto grato a Francesca Gallori e Barbara Maria Graf per aver contribuito alla revi- sione della mia trascrizione con dedizione e generosità.

In the nineteenth century it was in the forefront of the intellectual life of the city, and established an important museum in its own premises in Park Row. The museum collection became the foundation of today’s City Museum when in 1921 the Society transferred the building and its contents to the Corporation of Leeds, at the same time reconstituting itself as a charitable limited company, a status it still enjoys today. Following bomb damage to the Park Row building in the Second World War, both Museum and Society moved to the City Museum building on The Headrow, where the Society continued to have its offices until the museum closed in 1998. The new Leeds City Museum, which opened in 2008, is now once again the home of the Society’s office. In 1936 the Society donated its library to the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds, where it is available for consultation. Its archives are also housed there. The official charitable purpose of the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society is (as newly defined in 1997) “To promote the advancement of science, literature and the arts in the City of Leeds and elsewhere, and to hold, give or provide for meetings, lectures, classes, and entertainments of a scientific, literary or artistic nature”.

Proceedings of The First Munster Symposium on Jonathan Swift Edited by Hermann J. Real and Heinz J. Vienken 1985 Wilhelm Fink Verlag Miinchen Clive T. Probyn Monash University, Clayton, Victoria "Haranguing upon Texts": Swift and the Idea of the Book ABSTRACT. The quotation in the title is taken from Anthony Collins's Discourse ofFree-Thinking (1713), cited by Swift in his Abslract ofMr. C --- - ns '5 Discourse of Free-Thinking (I7 13), the two together offering an example of Swift's parodic method. This paper examines the "refunctioning" of the model text by Swift and suggests that the Collins text, though not producing one of Swift's most energetic and imaginative parodies, nevertheless posed radical questions about the nature of textual authority which deeply perplexed Swift. Specifically, Collins seems to sabotage the notion of priestly authority in matters of biblical exegesis, stressing the individual reader's right to generate his own meanings. Having previously attacked such notions in A Tale of a Tub, Swift sensed in Collins's Discourse the full horror of the Bible itself becoming uncanonical and spiritual authority replaced by anarchy.

  • Watson-The Rise of Pilo-Semitism
    The Rise of Philo-Semitism and Premillenialism during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries By William C. Watson, Colorado Christian University Let me therefore beg of thee not to trust to the opinion of any man… But search the scriptures thyself… understanding the sacred prophecies and the danger of neglecting them is very great and the obligation to study them is as great may appear by considering the case of the Jews at the coming of Christ. For the rules whereby they were to know their Messiah were the prophecies of the old Testament… It was the ignorance of the Jews in these Prophecies which caused them to reject their Messiah… If it was their duty to search diligently into those Prophecies: why should we not think that the Prophecies which concern the latter times into which we have fallen were in like manner intended for our use that in the midst of Apostasies we might be able to discern the truth and be established in the faith…it is also our duty to search with all diligence into these Prophecies. If God was so angry with the Jews for not searching more diligently into the Prophecies which he had given them to know Christ by: why should we think he will excuse us for not searching into the Prophecies which he had given us to know Antichrist by? … They will call you a Bigot, a Fanatic, a Heretic, and tell thee of the uncertainty of these interpretations [but] greater judgments hang over the Christians for their remises than ever the Jews felt.

  • Was Calvin a Calvinist? Or, Did Calvin (Or Anyone Else in the Early Modern Era) Plant the “TULIP”?
    Was Calvin a Calvinist? Or, Did Calvin (or Anyone Else in the Early Modern Era) Plant the “TULIP”? Richard A. Muller Abstract: Answering the perennial question, “Was Calvin a Calvinist?,” is a rather complicated matter, given that the question itself is grounded in a series of modern misconceptions concerning the relationship of the Reformation to post-Reformation orthodoxy. The lecture examines issues lurking behind the question and works through some ways of understanding the continuities, discontinuities, and developments that took place in Reformed thought on such topics as the divine decrees, predestination, and so-called limited atonement, with specific attention to the place of Calvin in the Reformed tradition of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. I. Defining the Question: Varied Understandings of “Calvinism” Leaving aside for a moment the famous “TULIP,” the basic question, “Was Calvin a Calvinist?,” taken as it stands, without further qualification, can be answered quite simply: Yes … No … Maybe ... all depending on how one understands the question. The answer must be mixed or indefinite because question itself poses a significant series of problems. There are in fact several different understandings of the terms “Calvinist” and “Calvinism” that determine in part how one answers the question or, indeed, what one intends by asking the question in the first place. “Calvinist” has been used as a descriptor of Calvin’s own position on a particular point, perhaps most typically of Calvin’s doctrine of predestination. It has been used as a term for followers of Calvin — and it has been used as a term for the theology of the Reformed tradition in general.
