Excerpt from Essays Philosophical and Moral, Historical and Literary, Vol. 2 of 2 During the civil contelts which Io long pre vailed between the rival Houfes of York and Lancafier, the regal authority, irregular as the ex ertions ofit fometimes appear, was fubjeeted to a variety ofimportant and Ialutary refiraints. As the one or the other party prevailed, popular laws were enaeted in order to acquire and preferve the good-will ofthe nation, which the Oppolite faeiion, when in power, could not venture to repeal. And in the reign of Edward IV. Lord Fortefcue was able to demonfirate, in firiking colours, the fupe riority of the Englifh conflitution and govern ment, compared with thofe of the furrounding nations 3 which indeed was qficiently manifell.

Essays, Moral and Literary, Vol. 2 of 2 (Classic Reprint) by Vicesimus Knox Pdf

Excerpt from Essays, Moral and Literary, Vol. 2 of 2 The belt method of extrac'tin a epitomizing, is to exprefs the author's ideas, a ter mttinghjs book, in our own words. In this exercife, the memory is exerted, and the ftyle improved. We make what we write our own; we think, we are aftive, and we do not condemn ourfelves to an. Employment merely ma nual and mechanical. But, after all, whatever a few may fay, write, or think, it is certain, that the great elt fcholars were content with reading, without making either extracts or epitomes. They were fatisfied with what remained in their minds after a diligent perufal, and when they wrote, they wrote their own. Reading is, indeed, molt juflly called the food of the \mind. Like food, it mull; be dige ed and a imulated it mull thew its nutritive power by promoting growth and fireh th, and by enabling the mind to bring forth founf and vigorous produftiousr It mu be converted in fucczzm ez' fanguz'zzem, 1nt03u1ce and blood, and not make its appearance again in the form in which it was originally imbibed. It is indeed true, and the ih fiance may be brought in oppolition to my doerine, that Demofthenes tranfcribed Thucydides eight times with his own hand; but it {hould be' remembered, that Demo henes ourifhed before printing was difcovered, and that he was induced to tranfcribe Thucydides, not only for the fake of improvement, but alfo for the fake of multiplying copies of a favourite author.

Essays Moral, Political, and Literary, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint) by David Hume Pdf

Excerpt from Essays Moral, Political, and Literary, Vol. 1 of 2 Most of the principles, and reasonings, contained in this volume, were published in a work in three volumes, called A Treatise of Human Nature A work which the Author had projected before he left College, and which he wrote and published not long after. But not finding it successful, he was sensible of his error in going to the press too early, and he cast the whole anew in the following pieces, where some negligences in his former reasoning and more in the expres sion, are, he hopes, corrected. Yet several writers, who have honoured the Author's Philosophy with answers, have taken care to direct all their batteries against the juvenile work, which the Author never acknowledged, and have affected to triumph in any advantages, which, they imagined, they had obtained over it: A practice very contrary to all rules of candour and fair-dealing, and a strong instance of those polemical artifices, which a bigotted zeal thinks itself author ised to employ. Henceforth, the Author desires, that the following Pieces may alone be regarded as containing his philosophical sentiments and principles.'

Essays and Treatises on Several Subjects, Vol. 2 of 2 by David Hume Pdf

Excerpt from Essays and Treatises on Several Subjects, Vol. 2 of 2: Containing, an Inquiry Concerning the Human Understanding; A Dissertation on the Passions; An Inquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals; And the Natural History of Religion This also must be confessed, that the most durable, as well as justest fame, has been acquired by the easy philo sophy and that abstract reasoners seem hitherto to have enjoyed only a momentary reputation, from the caprice or ignorance of their own age, but have not been able to sup port their renown with more equitable posterity. It is easy for a profound philosopher to commit a mistake in his sub tile roasonings; and one mistake is the necessary parent of another, while he pushes 'on his consequences, and is not deterred from embracing any conclusion, by its un usual appearance, or its contradiction to popular Opinion. But a philosopher, who purposes only to represent the common sense of mankind in more beautiful and more en gaging colours, if by accident he falls into error, goes no farther; but renewing his appeal to common sense, and the natural sentiments of the mind, returns into the right path, and secures himself from any dangerous illusions. The faine of Cicero ourishes at present; but that of Aristotle is utterly decayed. La Bruyere passes the seas, and still maintains his reputation; but the glory of Male branche is confined to his own nation, and to his own age. And Addison, perhaps, will be read with pleasure, when Locke shall be entirely forgotten. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Biographical and Critical Essays, Vol. 2 of 2 by A. Hayward Pdf

Excerpt from Biographical and Critical Essays, Vol. 2 of 2: Reprinted From Reviews, With Additions and Corrections When we write a book, it is our reflection, our reason, that speak; we express only our ideas, sometimes only the hypocrisy of our ideas. When we write letters, we more commonly express our sentiments and our passions. Read, for example, the elegant pages in which Sallust raises altars to poverty, proclaims the ineffable sweetness and the eminent dignity of the Stoic moralists, stigmatises with burning declamation, with virtuous anger, the corruption of Rome, the extortion in the provinces. I s it after reading this that we shall recognise this Sallust, the corrupter of the domestic hearth, the bloodstained tribune, the slave of Caesar, the impudent extortioner, whose famous museum-gardens were built with the gold and the tears of N umidia? Incredible power of abstraction! Prodigious miracle of taste and art! This man, branded with infamy, talks of virtue like Cato pen in hand he becomes virtuous. Shall we believe also in the disinterestedness of Seneca, in his philosophy, his austerity, his clemency, by reading nothing but his moral treatises, from which morals seem to flow rather than words. Read his life, and you will avert your looks. Alongside of some real public and private virtues, what shameful weaknesses! What infamy and crime! He knew how to die: he did not know how to live.' When Seneca wrote his treatise in praise of poverty, he had some millions sterling out at usurious interest and it was the pointed saying of South, that when he (seneca) recommended people to throw away their money, it was with the view of picking it up himself.
