Description:
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.

1699 ENGLISH ed Ancient GREECE Illustrated Greek Temples Olympic Games Homer
John Potter was a 17th-century Canterbury archbishop who, in addition to his theological works, published numerous works of classical history. One such work was his 'Archaeologiae Graece' or 'The Antiquities of Greece' which proved to be highly popular throughout the English-speaking world.
This work focuses on the military and political powers of ancient Greece with a heavy emphasis on war and Alexander the Great. Note that this work contains highly desirable engravings depicting Greek ruins, ancient Olympic athletes (discus, wrestlers, etc.), and much more.
Potter also regularly references Homer and his approach to mythological heroes like Achilles and Agamemnon in the Trojan War.

1693 ENGLISH Essays of Montaigne France Renaissance Philosophy Humanism Cotton

"The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself."
― Michel de Montaigne, Essays

First published in 1580, the Essays of Michel de Montaigne were a collection of essays and writings on a variety of topics and content. Montaigne was rather decisive in his rhetoric and used various Ancient Greek, Latin, and Italian texts as examples and references, such as Lucretius and Plutarch quotations. Montaigne himself stated that the goal of his essays was to describe man with 'utter frankness and honesty.' According to the scholar Paul Oskar Kristeller,
"the writers of the period were keenly aware of the miseries and ills of our earthly existence".

Montaigne sought to break man down into his basic features, which, at the time, was extreme volatility. He wrote on marriage being an absolute necessity for raising children, but he also quoted, in the 'Essays,' that "Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds… Read More

Description:
1868 The Lost Cause Pollard MAP Confederate Civil War White Supremacy SLAVERY

Edward Pollard was a notable American writer on the Civil War whose works, predominantly, covered the history of the American South. He wrote about slavery, the rise of Ku Klux Klan, the life of President Jefferson Davis, as well as an impressive account of the rise and fall of the Confederacy.

The latter, titled 'The Lost Cause', was Pollard's most famous work, though not necessarily because of its popularity. 'The Lost Cause' gained its fame for Pollard's advocating for white supremacy and the relegation of blacks to a second-class status. Pollard supported the notion that slavery was the key to a Confederate way of life and nobility. According to Gallagher & Nolan, this book was likely
"the first book that set forth the Confederate case against the generalship of Ulysses S. Grant."

This 1868 subscription-only edition is illustrated with portrait engravings of notable CSA leaders including Jefferson Davis, Robert E… Read More

1695 ENGLISH 1ed Treatise on Epic Poetry VIRGIL Homer Aesop Dryden Rene Bossu

René Le Bossu was a prestigious 17th-century French literary critic best-known for his commentary on epic poetry. In his book "Treatise on Epic Poetry", Bossu focused on what makes successful epic poetry, identifying that subject matter took precedence over characters and character development. Much of the commentary comes from Bossu's study of Homer, Aesop, and Virgil and Dryden's famous interpretations.

This 1695 first English edition of Bossu was published with an essay on satire by Dacier as well as Fontenelle's treatise on pastoral literature.

Trumansburg, NY: Out of Step Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 2016. Numbered Edition; First Printing. Pamphlet. The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250. Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love. It's a thought experiment: if we tore down the barracks at military hospitals and offered incentives for Americans in the surrounding neighborhoods to quarter injured service members, what would the honest instructions… Read More
